It’s been a happy New Year!

Monday, February 14th, 2011

Both the boys love school. Fletcher has settled nicely in to 1st grade, and Kristopher in to 4th. We’re hoping to bring Fletcher up to 2nd grade mid year, but there’s no push (especially considering technically Kristopher skipped a grade, it wasn’t Fletcher who was held back). They both have their at school routine well worked out and enjoy Friday’s Tuckshop. Kristopher singed up for Choir and Fletcher is contemplating Cross Country running. We’ll see!

Every Sunday morning at 8.30 am is Nippers. The boys definitely enjoy the beach. Nippers gives them a chance to become stronger swimmers, more ocean aware and get to play with other kids. It’s an all around win/win. It’s also forced Mom and Dad to get in shape as we have to chase the kids!

I’ve started my dissertation research and now have the 3.5 hour commute a couple times a week. Wade, thankfully, is finally able to work!! He’s fully licensed to be a substitute teacher and once he has reached 40 hours as a sub he will be a fully licensed teacher again. We can’t wait!

All is trudging along nicely and we’re busy bees as usual. Hope all is well back in the States.

Cheers!
