A quick trip north

December 12th, 2013

The kids and I went up to Meme and Papa's for a quick visit.  Daddy has been very busy with work and poor Lindalee hasn't been feeling well.  It was very nice to get a little help and breath some fresh country air.  The kids enjoyed it as well.

There was quite a bit more snow at Meme and Papa's.  Despite the FREEZING temperatures, the kids convinced Meme to take them out sledding.


The kids had a great time.  Despite the workout and cold, I think Meme had a pretty good time too.

Home again, home again...

With Christian not in a regular school program, I've been working hard {and enjoying} at incorporating learning activites throughout the day.  I feel like I'm finally beginning to understand how he learns, and I find it so interesting {and cute}.  It's easy to assume he would learn like I did- pen and paper.  Christian doesn't hold a marker for more than a second or two at a time.  He likes to express himself in other ways.  His favorite thing to do is create letters and numbers out of his food.  At first I thought he was being silly, but then realized he was doing a really great job.  I'm learning I need to change my approach and follow his lead.  I'm sure Lindalee will be totally different.  I have to be thankful that these kiddos keep me on my toes!
