Can you belive it is going to be May this weekend?

Wow, Lilah is going to be 9 in less than a month (May 21). Am I getting old, or what! She is getting to be so grown up. She has been such a great big sister and helper. She is enjoying baby Miles. The other day she asked if she could get him dressed. She changed his diaper and dressed him up in a cute outfit. She did a good job. She is getting better about doing her homeschooling and is on lesson 122 of 170. She should be able to finish by July. She'll have about 6 weeks off before she starts 4th grade mid August. Alex and Kai will join her in the homeschooling this fall. Even though Kai won't be old enough to officially do Kindergarten, I think he will enjoy it, so I am going to teach both of them. We are planning to do homeschooling for only this upcoming school year, and then after that We plan of sending them to the Rock Academy.

For Lilah's Birthday we are going to take her and a friend or two to Disneyland while Melissa watches the Boys. It should be a lot of fun. We are going to pick up her friends from school on Wednesday and have the cake and let her open her present and then go to bed at a reasonable hour (with giggling school girls that is anything earlier than midnight). We hope to get to Disneyland by the time they open at 9am, so we'll have to leave our house by 7am.

This won't be the first time Melissa has watched the kids. I was canceled a day last week and at the last minute I called Melissa and she came over and Steve and I got to go out without the kids for the first time in almost a year. We went and saw the movie 17 again. It was really cute and funny. After the movie we went and took a nice long walk on the beach. We walked for about an hour and just talked and made each other laugh. It was wonderful. Even after we got home around 1230 am we weren't ready to go to bed and let the evening end, so after bidding Melissa goodnight and sending her home, we watched another movie on TV.

Well I hope everyone is having a great week,
God Bless You,
Suzanne
