Catching Up




It's been a while since I've had the chance to post so the purpose of this one will be to catch up. Some news: I will be leaving my weekend library job at the end of the month in order to have more family time and more time for day trips. I will also be taking one of the 2 classes that I need for my Media Specialist certification for teaching in the school system. I've been reading lots of education literature and have added some items to our 'home school,' reorganized and rearranged our space, and learned some cool new stuff. Fletcher was having a hard time adjusting to Ed's new work schedule which I'm sure seems completely unpredictable to a 3-year-old, but seems to be doing better now. Ed is enjoying his Lowe's job and will also be teaching online classes for ECPI this fall. The kids and I have been enjoying the summer and have had fun playing, making art, reading good books, and more. Our friend Mandy will be going to Montessori school in the fall. We will miss her terribly! Fletcher's preschool starts back after Labor Day and we're ready with new shoes and backpack, and some cool new clothes. Almost everyone I know was at the beach this past week and I have 'beach fever'! Images: Fletcher and friends had fun spraying a canvas with paint, cutting yarn and straws with scissors, and Fletcher pretends to be Johnny Appleseed after reading the story with Mommy.
