I know, I know I’ve been bad about updating ;)
But here is a short update on where everybody is…
Jack-Jack is rocking his speech therapy! His therapist has found his button, cutting and pasting!! He will do what she wants in exchange for getting to cut things and paste things. So now she has him cutting little pictures or just squares of construction paper and gluing them on to sheets, which mommy dutifully hangs up on our wall of projects
He can now say all of his (M)(vowel) sounds like MA, MO, MI and his (B)(vowel) sounds! We also printed some sorting games from File Folder Fun to practice memory matching and sorting biggest to littlest. Shraddha has been having fun with that too! The lacing cards have been a hit lately too, I am making shamrock lacing cards for them to play with next week
Danielle is chugging along. She is almost finished with her math book, and she took to fractions like a duck to water! I can’t believe how fast she got that concept! Reading is still going slowly, I think I am going to have her eyes checked when I go in next month. I am concerned with how frustrated she gets. Her spelling is going well, though she gets upset when she has to read to finish the pages
The butterflies we sent out to migrate to Mexico will be winging their way home soon. Our frogs are growing so fast, I think we are going to have to get a bigger tank! We are growing grass seeds, and soon will be growing sunflowers again!
Danielle wants to take piano lessons, not sure I can afford them at the moment, but I will look into it. She really seems like she is destined to play some instrument, she loves to play with her guitar, and she pretends to write music rather often.
I guess that’s about it
