It's the most WONDERFULL time of the year!!!!! School has started and peace and quiet is in the air. We had an amazing summer full of swimming, hot dog roasting, parties with friends, water fights, building playhouses, and so much more! As fun as all this was, I am sooooo ready to have a schedule back, and have a little time to relax without kids running in and out of the house all day long. Oh, and for those of you who know how great this is for me--the boys get to ride their bikes to school!!!!!!! I am thrilled! Skater and I get some alone time while Cbug and Deets are at school and the Cobester is taking a nap. It is heavenly. Skater and I have developed a, much needed, closer relationship because of this time together. We watch "Sign Time" together which is a DVD created to help kids learn sign language. It is great!! I highly recommend it!!! The sign language is playing a duel role in our family. Skater has speech delays, and so the signing is really helping him, and the Cobester will, most likely, not start talking until he is 3 or 4. It is always nice to kill 2 birds with one stone. Our family has had so much fun learning the signs. We work on learning a few different signs each week for family home evening.
