To Wit

The girls are fabulous, as you can see. We haven't posted a picture in a bit. There is a reason for that (Mom), we have to pace ourselves, people. We aren't photographers, as much as I'd like to think I'd make a pretty good one.

We had a plumber come in today. He was a real nice guy. Took care of three different items and all within an hour and change. It is nice to see someone who has the tools, know how do a good job. He even seemed to have pride in his workmanship. Having been in the casino industry for a while that is more than just a little refreshing. So now we have a reliable main switch, a working cold tap on the work sink and a dripless hot water tap in the shower. It's the little things.

Reagen is reading Dick and Jane books. I don't mean pretending either. The way they are taught their letters and sounds is remarkable and Reagen is putting words together all on her own. So it is a howl to see her reading to Hannah. Hannah is glued and Reag is plowing through her story. And I wasn't the least proud when the JK teacher sent home a list of things she wanted the students to be able to do when they came back to school and Reag had already been at them for a while. Ahem. Nope, not at all.

And the best I can say about me is that got a drip fixed.
