I have my two front teeth already. What I really want for Christmas is a camera. Our poor camera never really works. It's pretty sad. So, we've given up on taking pictures which is even more sad. It miraculously worked at Halloween, so we have a few photos from then.
We are good here, but seriously busy. Seriously. Phil just finished his first student teaching job, it was teaching Math at a Middle School. The kids loved him and didn't want him to go and the cooperating teacher said he won't have any problems finding a job (we hope that's true.) So, he was leaving at 7 a.m. to get to student teaching then from there he went to work then he either came home at 6 p.m. to do homework through the night or he went on to school and got home at 10:30 only to do homework through the night. While he was doing that I've been running a day care out of my home. Including my own kids, I have 7 children at the day care, 6 of which are UNDER 5 years old. He starts his full-time student teaching at the high school around the corner of us in January. He won't be working then since, well, there won't be any time in the day or evening to do that. Anyway, that's why I haven't blogged or checked blogs. I wish I could say something witty but there's not really room for that in my brain right now.
Things about the kids:
James: talking A LOT! Loves to give hugs, and hit. Kinda funny, but not really. Loves to sing. His nick name is JJ Moo Moo.
Sam: Loves preschool and is learning his letters and sounds. He told Santa that he wanted everything for Christmas. He's not a greedy boy, he just got nervous and forgot what he was going to tell him. But everything is a cuter response. He wants to know why police men don't carry swords. I try to explain that guns are much more efficient, his response to that, "but swords are cooler!"
Lizzy: Reading a LOT, is in an acting club that some teenagers from our church have. She is asked frequently to sing solos or duets or in children's choirs for our church.
That's it with us. Oh, and baby #4 is due in March. Good times.
