January wrap up

As mentioned, January has been off to a busy start.  I am teaching 5 dance classes per week: 3 out of my home and two at the studio.  5 hours doesn't seem like much on paper, but the preparation does require additional time.  I have also been juggling physical therapy every few weeks for an ouchy knee.  I have weeks where it feels great, and weeks where it hurts.  I have learned a lot in physical therapy, however, so I am hoping that with strengthening and stretching it will get better over time.  

Joseph suprised me with flowers a few weeks ago!  No special occasion either!  :)

David's pinewood derby car this year was "The Mad Hornet".  He did pretty well and placed first in the webelos.  Last pinewood derby (sniff).  James, you are next!

January is always a great time to get sick.  What I mean to say is that we are always sick in January.  Ruth had a fever for a few days and Emmy had a monster cold.  They were so cute with their family room set up, that I couldn't help but take a photo.  This reminds me of my sick days as a kids when the couch was my best friend.  Lucky for Ruth, she can lay on the couch and still feel in the center of life's activities.
