No posting recently as it's been a challenging couple of weeks and we've been doing much life schooling. Jesse got in a severe motor vehicle accident last Wednesday. She's extremely lucky she lived, let alone walked away. Abby and Kyle had Chess Club the following day - we were trying to keep things as 'normal' as possible. Abby went to a dance at the local high school Friday, but unfortunately got hit by a nasty flu that night. She seemed to get better on Monday, then both she and Kyle were sick by Tuesday night. They attended their ketsuka classes on Tuesday (before they acknowledged being sick) and Thursday (when they were feeling much better). They've been reading much. Kyle has even been reading fiction! Historical fiction, but this is good for the boy who would much rather read technical manuals, National Geographics or history books. This week has been rather quiet albeit very grey and rainy. We've just been trying to regroup, recover and be grateful. Very, very grateful.
