Jan: Trip to Air Zoo to ring in the New Year. We also went tubing and tobogganing and absolutely love it. If you have never tried tobogganing, you are missing out. J/W both take ice skating class and parents gets ice skates and joins the fun.

Feb: D quits her job and is officially a “stay-at-home” mom. A trip to Creation museum with HB church was both fun/educational. Too bad it was a day trip.

Mar: D receives her material from Enki education, a home schooling curriculum and starts pouring over it. She wishes she had known about this when the kids were babies. Well, better late than never. J continues her gymnastic class and can do a cartwheel but is afraid when it comes doing cartwheel on the balance beam. She also works on doing a full split.

Apr: W is learning soccer and enjoys a little competitive scrimmage at the end of class. The kids fall in love with “Ginger” restaurant especially with their milk tea and ask to be taken there often. J even drew a picture of “Ginger” in her journal at school.

May: D can’t wait until W and J is out of school. The 30 minute round trip to AA every day is taking a toll, plus another 30 minute to get out of the parking lot of school for J. W continues to have discussion with his classmate about God in his Montessori school. W gets repeated declaration of love from a girl at his school but responds with silence.

Jun: W finishes his Montessori school and J graduates from kindergarten. Both kids take tennis class. M was not impressed with the class. W spent lots of time socializing in tennis class and finds a buddy in Charlie. D gets to know a mom who has a daughter who is born on the same date/month/year as W.

July: Camping trip for J’s birthday. D once again is not a big fan of camping especially due to the mosquitoes. Luckily, there were days spent at hotel. M loved the bon fire best even though he had trouble maintaining it at first.

August: J loves sports camp and craft camp. W can’t wait to turn 5 so he can go to camp next year. W attended tot Olympics and enjoyed getting a medal for participating.

Sept: J joins Girl Scotts through her school. She also starts tap/jazz class. W stays home and loves to be read to and can spent 1-2 hours playing by himself with power rangers. M and D watched “Fireproof” and enjoyed it tremendously.

Oct: J takes tennis class again, this time through a tennis club. She also scored 99% in reading and 96% in math for her assessment at her school. W continues to thrive at home and D loves staying at home with W.
