Well here we are, finding that October is almost upon us. I can't believe where this year has gone. As I look back over the last couple of months, it is unreal to believe that we are here in South Carolina. I'm sure that most of you thought that we would never make it.
Well to give you an update on the family; Tyree is doing great at school! We had parent teacher conference last week, Tyree's teacher Mrs. Hooker, has informed us that Tyree is above the bench mark that has been set for the kindergarten grade. They recently has some testing done to determine how the kids where doing with there letters and the sounds that they make. Along with the testing that they did, they have started a new program at school, where they get to go and spend 50 mins every day with another teather. There they will be starting to read. They will get her fimiliar with her site words like; and, it, I, but, he, she. And sounding out words as well. She will be with groups of children who are all learning on the same level. We are all excited to watch her progress and learn new things.
Parker, as you can guess is still crazy as ever. He is growing so much. Finding out new things to drive his mom crazy with. He seriously is a blast to have around. His smile and laughter is infectious! Some parts where fun and some parts where scary. He has made some new friends too. Jack and Elania are some of his new friends. They are both cute little kids. Parker and Jack togehter given the chance could get in some big trouble.So I'm just waiting for the bomb to go off! He still misses his big sister, and can't wait to go and pick her up after school.
Scotty, is doing great in school too. He just recently had a test and scored a 99%, on of the highest in the class. He was very proud of himself, and I am too.
I have yet to find a job. It seems that no one would like to hire me. It is getting a little frustrating, but at least I have Parker to keep me entertained. Scotty and I have spent many hours on our knees asking the Lord to bless us with a job that will work for our family. We are very hopeful that something will come along soon. I have made a couple of new friends too. I posted an add on Criag's List, to put together a play group for Parker, and I had only one reply. Laura, and her family just moved from Porto Rico, she has 3 kids the two oldest are the same ages as Ty and Parkie, so double bonus. While meeting at the park the first time we also meet Shari. Shari and her family moved from Richmond, VA. a few months ago. She has two kids, Jack whom I have mention and Elli who is 16 month old. So we are all new implants to South Carolina. We have formed a fast bond. We all got together over the weekend for dinner, and fun. The husbands got along great. It was a lot of fun.
The weekend before, we went to a carnival. It was up the street from us. The kids had a blast. They went on a couple of rides. They had a slide there, and good thing that it didn't cost any tickets because the went on that thing for 45 mins. strait. They had such a good time. The pictures are from the carnival. Sorry they are a little dark. The little girl that is with Ty, is a friend from school, that she ran into. The carnival was way to much fun, and of course they didn't want to leave.
Well I hope all is well with our friends and family. We miss and can't wait until Christmas. We arrive on the 19th of Dec. We will be staying for two weeks. The kids are so excited to see Grandma's and Grandpa's, and I'm sure that they are excited to see them too. We love all of you and think of you often. Love ya!
