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!! :)
