Hannah is 8 1/2. She is doing a lot of growing up these days. Sometimes it just smacks me in the forehead how much she is changing. Ryan was traveling all last week and when he got home I was filling him in on how challenging it had been all week to understand where Hannah [...] Hannah has a great friend back in Missouri – our sweet Margo who lived just down the road. Hannah and Margo have played together since they were 4 years old. They spent a lot of time over the years at one each others houses. Margo is one of the sweetest people I have ever met [...] Yep, it was bound to happen. Hannah wiped out big time last night on her bike while we were at the park. She was playing with some kids who were on scooters and she got busy paying more attention to them whizzing by than focusing on her bike. Bloody nose, bloody lip, bloody knuckles, bruised knees. I [...] …how many families in America have plastic Easter eggs strewn all around their house. Hannah and Ellie have played “Easter Egg Hunt” all week hiding the eggs for one another. They have had a great time. But, there are eggs hidden in every room…I think it will take us until the 4th of July to find them [...] Hannah and her Daddy are currently on a bike ride. I am ashamed to say that she just got her first “non training wheel” bike last week. In Missouri, we lived on a hilly, rocky road where it would have been impossible for her to learn. She had a couple of lessons this week after Dad got [...] Three Bethany families received their referrals yesterday on April Fool’s Day. Two one-month old infants – a boy and a girl, and a 5 year old girl will soon make the huge transition to their new families who have been eagerly waiting. ********************** Hannah was the prankster yesterday – setting the dinner table with plastic kiddie plates and [...] Hannah said out of the blue the other day that she would probably win if she were to ever enter “The Slowest Eater” contest. Her wheels were turning considering this concept… I’m not sure where she came up with that one, but, come on, the kid knows the meaning of “savor”. That is one of my [...] The other night as we were driving home from Awana, Hannah was wondering out loud if there will be kids in the new neighborhood to play with once we move to Denver. She looked over at Ellie and said, “don’t worry, I will find you a nice three year old friend that you like to play [...] I have always been pretty strict on how much TV my kids watch. Hannah is allowed to watch two shows after her schoolwork and chores are complete. “Mom, I’ve been thinking about watching 3 shows now.” – very grown-up sounding, as if this is her decision. “Mmm-Hmmm, Honey” (head in the refrigerator looking for apple juice for [...] Hannah’s math curriculum is not named by grade level but rather by the Greek alphabet. She has completed Alpha and Beta. She will be starting the “Grandma” level next week. At least that is what I overheard her tell her Dad. |
