UPDATE

I don't even know where to begin. We have already had to take off 2 weeks, as DH came home on emergency leave when his stepmother passed away. We were out of pocket and then you know, it was just a good chance for the kids to spend time with their dad. He's back in Afghanistan now (6 months down and 9 more to go) and we are trying to get back to work.

Things are still going pretty good. DD has decided that she wants to be a Marine Biologist. That, of course, could change any minute but until it does we will be studying the ocean. Right now, it's dolphins. She is enjoying it.

DS and I are going to have to work a little closer for a while. I'm not sure he is totally getting the lay out TRISMS down. He's doing okay but just okay and I want him to be doing GREAT! So, I've got to spend sometime this weekend planning and doing some reading myself.

Now, I just need to learn how to split my time between them better. UGH!! They are 5 years apart and so that often makes it hard but we will figure it all out. I just want them to have fun learning. That's my goal this year that we learn that learning can be and IS FUN!!
