September 2012

OK, I know, I know it has been over a year since I updated this. I hate to admit it but I have fallen prey to the Facebook fad and I find I post most of my photos easily over there. So if you are on FB, look us up - I admit you will get more up-to-date information there (at least in the foreseeable future, not to mention the last year).

I am not even going to try to catch up on posting over a years worth of photos. I am curious if you can see these on FB of his 5th grade "Continuation" If I can work a way to post and have them here - that would be wonderful. Please let me know.

VERY brief wrap up ....

• Justin LOVES baseball even more than before - but is trying all the after school sports he can get his hands on. He loves his sports!
• He is now in 6th grade and a new school. We have a terrific case manager who has been in touch via email and calls more than Cristi can hope for. We love her. He was transferred to classes that give him some real one-on-one academic support so we have hopes for his continued advancement in his education. It is so hard for him but he really does try which is all we can ask for.
• He is turning .... wait for it ... 12 in a couple of weeks. Do I need to buy gray hair cover coloring for anyone -- I know I need it.
• Esther is doing great here - so nice to have her so close.
• Cristi's folks are doing great and carrying on as people who have earned retirement should be <grin>
• Justin got to enjoy a baseball league this spring. He was lower middle of the team in batting and in our humble opinion upper 1/3 in fielding. First base really came easily to him.

Also, I am going to be playing with new web site layouts and of course I will be using my site as a test case. Don't be surprised if things go off line or look strange every so often.
