Happy Labor Day!
I'm sorry that it has been so long since my last blog. The beginning of the school year is so busy. It was great having today off though.
So, what's been going on here since my last post?
Mason's arm-The doctor said it is healing fine but he wants him to refrain from anything that might jar it and not to raise it up and around too much. No swimming or P.E. for 8 weeks! It's getting harder because he doesn't feel like it's broken and therefore wants to do all the regular stuff that he would normally do. Today we went round and round because one of the neighbors had set up one of those blow-up water slides and invited the kids over. Mason was so upset that we wouldn't let him play on it.
School- Third grade is going well for both Mason and I. My class is very active and I have a small classroom but we are managing so far. Kenzie is doing fine, except that her teacher told me Friday that she often plays in her desk during instruction time. When I asked Kenzie she blamed her pencil. Apparently her pencil tempts her to play. :)
Other stuff- Apparently Mason has chosen a new nickname for himself; Mario. I have never heard anyone call him Mario but he said it's his nickname.
Mason wants a drum set. He is constantly drumming on his chest or a table. I don't think I'm ready for a drum set in the house! I told him that maybe Uncle Bill could teach him when we move back. (Uncle Bill can keep a drum set at his house and we'll just send Mason over!)
Mackenzie keeps making friends with kids in the neighborhood who have puppies. She seems to want to play with their dog more than playing with them. I tried to explain to her that you don't make friends with someone just because you want to play with their dog!
Lastly, Mason had to fill out a questionaire for our new music teacher and one of the questions was, "Tell me about your walk with God." He answered, "It was Awesome!" :)
Hope everyone has an awesome week this week!
