Man has it been busy around here! First off, Ashley, the 8-year-old, was named Student of the Month … Yep, 2 kids in school, 2 kids in a row named “SotM” … guess I must be doing something right

The holiday is approaching at warp speed and we are in full swing. We managed to get all of the kids presents (with the exception of 1 video game for the DS) … this is early for us, we have very little hiding space ’round here, so we tend to be last minute shoppers. Now we just have to get for everyone else LOL. Probably going to get our tree at the end of the week
It snowwwwwed yesterday! They said 4.5″ here last night. Not much is left on the ground, but I took the kids out for a snowball throwing, picture taking good time this a.m.


Tomorrow is the first part of E’s eval for CPSE (Center on Preschool Special Education). It’s the education portion, and boy am I nervous! I’m not sure if I want him to fail or if I want him to do well – failing means he would be eligible to receive preK, but that means he’d be going 5 days a week all day long; passing means he won’t get preK services (unless we pay for them) and I’ll need to shuttle him back and forth to half hour speech sessions 2 or 3 times a week. What’s a mama to do? *sigh* I just want what’s best for my baby, but it’s so hard to figure out exactly what that is.
Anyhow … as you can see/read, things are busy busy busy in these parts – this session of winter soccer will be coming to a close at the end of the week (2 more practices left), Girl Scouts has become Ashley’s new favorite place to be, the middle man (JT) has his winter concert on Friday, and soon winter “break” will be upon us.
Happy December everyone!!!
