Sinking Ship

Jane is doing reading lessons with Dad. It's going slow, really slow. She's a drifter of thoughts. She has always been on her own time schedule. She is often in her head and doing her own imaginary playing. Sometimes we are invited and sometimes we are not. She has a "special room". Everything great happens there. It sounds like a wonderful place. We hear stories about this place all of the time. She tortures her best friend with it. Often she will remind her best friend about her "special room" and how she is the only one who can go there. It works. This statement drives Carys crazy and she often whines to her mother about wanting a special room too.
Charlie has more energy then he ever knows what to do with. Luckily soccer starts up soon.
Maggie uses the Lords name in vain. When I correct her by saying, "we say oh my goodness" she will then respond with, "but some people say oh my g--". She's also very good at identifying her genders and will let all of us know what people have a penis or a pagina. All neighbors and friends have been identified correctly. We are just so proud of her. She is so bright.

Summer camps? Anyone offering really cheap summer camps at their homes?

Wow, Charlie is a normal active boy but the girls brains? Where did they come from? Are you sure it is really Janie that comes out of the secret room every time? Maybe Maggie is just an example of what happens when you raise your kids in Fauquier County!

I love your blog. It makes me laugh out loud. If you find out about any of those cheap summer camps let me know. I have a child who I'd like to send too.
