- Tim has been working hard on getting all the finishing details of the patio completed. He’s down to a final (albeit kind of long) to do list of the tasks left. It’s always exciting when a big project starts to come to a close! I can tell he’s pretty exhausted these days from trying to balance work and watching the kids and squeeze in working on the patio in any free moments he has. I’m sure he’ll be THRILLED to have this done. Hopefully a big push this weekend and that will be it!
- Praise the Lord–my PUPPS (or whatever it was) is gone!!! The prednisone seems to have knocked it out effectively. It sure had me wound up, though. I seemed to have an extra dose of energy and went a bit crazy cleaning and being productive. I felt like I wanted to thoroughly deep clean every nook and cranny of the house… which of course, is not a wise endeavor when I only have a couple hours before teaching each day. 😀 Needless to say, I’m glad to be done with all of that. Now I’m just back to my normal self.
- Josiah went on a field trip yesterday with his Preschool class to the Lowry Nature Center. It was snowing. Yup. We dug out the winter hat and mittens before sending him off on the bus. April sure has had unpredictable weather! He was beyond excited (and a little nervous he also told me) to ride the bus. He barely waved goodbye to me, he was so excited.
- After the field trip yesterday, one of Josiah’s teachers came up to tell me how sweet he was… she said as they boarded the bus to come home, he stopped at the bus driver and asked her what her name was. She replied and then he looked right at her and said, “I think you’re the best bus driver EVER.”
- I ordered a book of pretty piano songs and I’m enjoying playing through it. They are not particularly hard, but very nice. I’m always on the lookout of for pretty songs for my students. Also songs that help work on emoting and “feeling” the line of music. The book is called “Lyric Moments” by Catherine Rollins. I ordered the complete collection, so it’s three books combined into one.
- Chloe has started to play with a neighbor girl after school in the yard. Her name is Lina. She’s in 5th grade. They have a good time playing in the backyard and riding bikes.
- We only have one more week of BSF left for the year. Josiah has had the same teacher the entire time he’s been in BSF (since he was born!) so it will be sad to have to say goodbye to wonderful Ms. Jeanne!
A little bit of this, a little bit of that…

Wow! That Josiah had the same teacher all those years! And hard to say how many children followed her just as Josiah did. It will be a tearful farewell. But all the blessings she has seen as she watched Josiah and the other children grow each year.
Big changes next year for Josiah! It is so fun to watch them all grow up!
