Hello, again!

Well, I know, it's been awhile, again... But so many things have been happening!!! School has started (which is what enables me to sit here, doing this right now)!!! Charlie has gone into the 2nd grade, so this is 'old hat' for him, he's a pro. Now, Henry, I was worried about Henry. He is one of the youngest in his group, & on top of his already reambunctious nature, I thought things would be rough @ school for him, but so far there have been no complaints (man, I hope I didn't just jinx anything!) He is eager to get to school everyday, & the work he brings home looks pretty decent. I am so proud of my boys!!! Even Elizabeth is going to preschool every morning & SHE is doing great. And this Momma gets a few hours to herself everyday!!! Even after Elizabeth comes home, she has lunch & lays down for her nap. Except for maybe today. I've looked in on her quite a few times, & everytime she is up to something different! Just a few minutes ago, I checked & she had just pooped-in-the-potty, in a pitch dark bathroom, & she was still running around bare-bottomed & un-wiped, but she's so good. Before that I had looked in on her, & I was able to watch her for a few quiet minutes while she bounced her plastic toy elephant around in the stove of her little kitchen, as she is laying down on the floor, with her head resting on a little stuffed frog. Once she noticed me, she looked away ashamed & acted like she could just be invisable as long as she just didn't look back & acknowledge me! I got her back to bed & noticed she had also been busy lining some of her other stuffed animals up in a chair for some event she had planned. I guess I'll just hafta give up on the nap if she doesn't lay down soon. She is so sweet! In the meantime, I might just try to take a little nap myself before the boys get home! So long.
