Amelia was so excited to lose both of her front teeth! This morning she informed me that she is going to put half of her tooth fairy money into the collection jar at school for St. Jude.

My Jack gets up every morning at 5:00 am to see his dad. If he does happen to sleep in he is awoken by the garage door and sprints down to say good-bye to dad before he leaves. Getting up at 5:00 am is early so by 8:00 pm Jack is tired. Now he won't actually go up to bed to sleep without being told, he'll rock and roll till whenever but the minute he lays down he is sleeping. Usually by the time I get up to say good night to him he is sleeping away. He is so sweet asleep on his pillow. I wonder when the day will come when he stops getting up that early...

Amelia is doing great is in school. Last week she brought home one of her writing journals. As the year has progressed her pictures are more complete and her writing has become more elaborate. I love to see the progress she is making.

Oh my poor little Jack-man had his first bout with the flu. He came down with it suddenly the day before school was suppose to start after Christmas break. His body and head hurt, he had the fever and chills, sore throat, the whole nine yards. He pretty much slept for 2 days straight only waking up to eat goldfish crackers and drink water. I got worried about him as it settled into his chest; the way he coughed sounded like it hurt so bad. He was sick with symptoms for I would say for 4 days but it took another 2 or 3 for him to really shake it. I am not sure if his endurance is even all the way back but I am glad he is feeling better.
