Nathan's Ten Commandments (and other tidbits of news)



Nathan copied the ten commandments in Sunday School last week. I don't know how well you can see in the picture, but his teacher wrote 2, 4, 6, and 8. It's 7 and 9 that caused this particular project to end up on the blog. 7 reads "You shall not commit adultry" and my favorite, #9, "You shall give false testmony". No, I didn't forget the "not", but Nathan did and gave me a good laugh. Hopefully, he'll abide by the original version!

We've had a lot of firsts around here lately that most parents experience with their kindergartners, except we're experiencing them with our 7th grader. Zac has had his first bus ride, first tests, first locker combination, and today...(drum roll) his first school picture. I know they will probably be terrible, as most school pictures are, but I couldn't resist purchasing some just to see how they turned out. (See a future blog for the results!)

Alyssa has started dance again for the school year. We think we've found a good studio with experienced instructors. She's taking her usual ballet, pointe, jazz, lyrical and modern. She is missing tap this year since that class was only offered on Wed. nights, but I'm excited we got her schedule down to 3 nights a week and no Saturday practices!! Woo Hoo! My fellow dance company moms can truly appreciate how rare that is.

Nathan's first soccer game is tomorrow morning, so check back soon for a video!

Hi Sharon! Hope all is well. I was looking to see how Nathan's first game went. Is he enjoying it? Welcome to the world of soccer moms!

We sat in pouring rain for his first game--Yuck! I kept thinking they were going to call it off but there was no lightning. Of course, the boys loved it. It took Nate a little while to figure out what was going on but by his second game last night, he seemed to know what he was supposed to be doing. Hopefully a video will be forthcoming next week.
