Just a quick update on the girls and I:

Gneve is reading BOOKS! I can't believe it! She was put on the accelerated reading program at school, and has to bring home 2 new books a week and then she takes a test on them. She was nervous about the tests at first but I told her "what's going to happen if you get every question wrong?" She said "I don't know" and I said--"ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!" so we both laughed and she felt a lot better about the tests. She got them all right, though, so I guess the worry was for nothing. I am in the process of reviewing schools for her for next year-I so desperately want her out of the school she's in. I have to apply for each school I want her in by feb 1st, so I have a lot of applying to do!

Hannah is talking up a storm. She comes up with 5 or 6 new words a day. She's so amazingly cute! She does something that's not so cute though and sits in her crib at nap time for an hour or so singing, laughing, soing god knows what. I don't know what's so entertaining. Then I finally make her go to sleep. I don't know why this bugs me so much but it does. It actually frustrates me to the point of tears (But I suspect that's more my problem than hers!) She will be getting her big girl bed next week, and god help us she will be on the loose. I'm scared....She'll probably down the street at the neighbor's house having coffee at 6 am before anyone realizes she's gone!

I'm getting on-still waiting for a medication evaluation to see what kind of drugs they can dope me up with that will keep me from turning into a spasticated nerveball. We shall see....

In the meantime, hello to all you lovely mommies (Why aren't there ever any dads on here???) and have a great week.

Aw yay for reading! I remember that program when I was in school.

How old is Hannah now? can she open the bedroom doors to get out? Nap times are always lots of fun here. Liams talking to himself right now but if theres a movie on Macy is silent and absorbed.
