Thomas lucked out this year and didn't have to go to school on his birthday. Kindergarten conferences were going on yesterday and today. He now knows all of his ABC's and beginning word sound. We are now working on his sight words and ending word sounds. He has come a long way since the beginning of the school year.
Thomas requested that I make him a race car cake with his favorite NA SCAR on it, so I did my best. I hate making black frosting, it gets everywhere. Thomas had a good birthday, and chose to spend the night over at his friend Harley's house. I am not sure when he will be home today.Mariah is doing well in school, especially in her math and science areas. They are working on maps, plotting, and itineraries. She seems very excited about this.
JT is up for another promotion at work, making him a machine operator instead of an assistant. He seems to really enjoy working where he is working, but hating mandatory overtime. There seems to be a lot of that lately.
I am still working hard, and keeping everything flowing. Although I am soooo looking forward to the freedom of the upcoming vacation. Last weekend I went to a car dealership to see if I would qualify to by a newer used car and I did. I was waiting to hear back from that, when Sherry went to see if we could refinance the house. Well, lets say that I qualified to purchase the house from Sherry, and get a fixed rate mortgage. I am waiting to hear back from the Mortgage guy after he gets the 'good faith' paperwork sent over to him. Then I will find out how much the appraisal will cost, and we can move forward. I am so excited.
I guess you can say things have been busy. We are still very cold outside. The weather keeps teasing us. It gets above freezing for a day or two them it dips back down to the teens. Oh well, winter is almost over, and garden season is almost here. Yeah!
