Progress

Kimber made it home from Norway okay on Friday. She was quite tired, having been up since 10 p.m. our time the night before, but she recovered from the jet lag well.

We had our parent-teacher conference with Sidney's teacher yesterday. It was very positive and her teacher is quite pleased with Sidney's progress. She is still reading well above the expected level and performing well in other subjects. The only "negative" to come out was that because of Sidney's very active imagination, she tends to drift off subject easily. She makes up stories within the story she reads and has conversations with herself about what she reads. Big surprise, huh!?!

We are also doing the "fine tuning" on the house. We only have the pictures to go up still, and we are doing things like moving towel bars to places that make more sense, etc. I also stained a wooden stool we use in the kitchen to match the cabinets.

I promise that the next post will have a picture tour of the house! Oh, and we are really close to 5000 hits since we started tracking. Any ideas where number 5000 will be from?
