Family Home Evening


Our family has had a rough go with family home evenings in the past. With Mike in school...I've been a little less than motivated to get them going. But, now that he has finished and we can all be together as a family for it I am trying to give it a go. So, tonight we made our Family Home Evening Chart. The kids were really excited to see their names on the chart and loved helping out in FHE. I really hope we can get this into one of our favorite habits.

Preschool


Well, it's another school year and Marquis is attending preschool again. He loves Miss Tiff's preschool! Miss Tiff is a wonderful teacher who lives in our ward. She does an amazing job with Marquis and I'm sure all of the rest of her students too. This year Marquis has really improved. Marquis loved preschool last year but was still really hesitant to go. He would cry before we left and then sometimes when we got there. This year is a complete change...he begs to go and this past Friday when he was too sick to go he cried because he wanted so badly to go to school. He even asked me if I would take him to see Miss Tiff so he could tell her he was sick. Such a sweetheart!

Kaitlyn is also going to be attending a little preschool group. Some friends of ours are getting together to teach preschool to our 2 1/2 year olds. I'm not sure how it will work with our schedule but we're going to try it out for a couple of weeks.

We're all doing well. Still waiting for a job opportunity...and enjoying having daddy home with us. We love you all and miss you too!
