We've gotten 7-8 inches of snow in the last 24 hours. Today Jack, Anna and I went out in the morning to frolic a bit and to create a snowman. Pretty dry snow, so it wasn't easy going. Later in the afternoon all 4 of us walked over to the sledding hill in Buhr Park and did a few runs down the hill. Jack just wants to eat the snow, the rest is secondary to him.
Christmas lights on the house look so pretty with all that fresh powdery snow! Glad it came over the weekend when we didn't have anywhere to go.

And...it's 2013
Well, maybe we'll try this again.
It's Dec. 11. Jack is in Kindergarten at Emerson School. He is in Sigrid Bower's class and is a "Sun" for rotation to specials. He has specials in science (they're doing magnetism right now), Spanish, gym, art and computers. He has started relying on phonics to spell words, and is reading at the 5th grade level. He loves Lego, Star Wars, and computers. He also still likes figuring out how things work, and talks about being a biologist when he grows up.
Anna just started an young pre-school at EMU's Children's Institute 2 mornings a week. Not expecting much out of it at this stage; just a chance for her to spend some time with other kids. Since Jack started Kindergarten this year, it seemed she was missing that. Anna isn't reading yet, but she is getting better at counting objects and can spell her name. She wants to be a paleontologist when she grows up.
I'm a full professor, and currently avoiding grading!! :)
