Sage knows how to count to ten and write the S in his name. He knows his colors, but doesn't say them correctly. Instead, he identifies colors by the names of his favorite trains. Thomas is blue. James is red. Percy is green. And, so on. When I ask him the color of something blue, he says, "Thomas.". It's cute! Sage is also really into reading and writing lately. His writing now tells a story instead of just scribbles. I'm so proud! Perhaps one of Sage's biggest accomplishment is his willingness to share. The boys have become really good at that!
Kai is getting so big. The other night he was dressed up in a button down shirt with a collar and looked like a little old man - especially with his receding hairline. :) Kai talks a lot and still loves to sing and dance. He knows all the motions to his favorite songs. Kai is our little lovebug. He thrives on attention and affection. Fortunately, he gives just as many kisses and hugs as he gets. Be careful though, he likes to give love BITES too!
A few weeks ago, I was training with a consultant who I see two or three times a year. I was updating her about Sage and Kai and showing her recent pictures. She took one look at them and said, "He (Sage) looks so wise and he (Kai) looks like he just wants to be loved.". Boy, did she hit the nail on the head!
Jared is enjoying his new job at AB although he says it can be stressful at times. It sounds to me like he is an air traffic controller for beer - a beer traffic controller. He is still working part time for Best Buy too so that he can keep his employee discount. Adjusting to a six or seven day work week has been rough!
My job is going great! I love what I do and feel like I'm actually making a difference this year. That's important to me since I've been out of the classroom for five years now. I've missed that feeling. Classes for my Ed Specialist are going well too. I really enjoy the content and learning from other professionals in other school districts.
