My brilliant children

Victoria is amazing.  Today was her last day of school.  It is bittersweet for me.  I am excited that I don't have to spend the mornings being her cheerleader getting her out the door in a happy mood, but, I'm a little nervous about trying to figure out enough things to keep her out of her room this summer.  However, her summer is only 5 weeks long, she will start school in Arizona the week of June 5th.  (She is not aware of this yet, we are letting her enjoy summer for now.)  She received Student of the Quarter for her grade.  Somehow I didn't get notice about the awards assembly, which is sad, but she brought home the certificate.

 Her therapist will be working with her every weekday from 11-1.  So that's good.  We plan to visit the library once or twice a week.  And hopefully we get warmer weather soon so we can go to the pool and she can show off her swimming she has been practicing so hard.

She is getting excited to go to Arizona with her, and we are overjoyed that we get to take her and she will be with us longer.  We just don't know yet how much that "longer" is going to be.  :)

Micah is so smart.  I am fully aware that I am his mother, and I am supposed to say that.  Matt just got home from work.  Here is the conversation between the two

Micah: Hi, Dada.
Matt: Hi, Micah.
Micah: How was your day?
Matt: Good, how was yours?
Micah: Good, I got new shoes.

Makes a Momma smile.  He still loves his vehicles, airplanes and helicopters very much.  And he can dribble the soccer ball about half way across our yard.  It's pretty awesome.  We are working on potty training and letting go of "paci."  We are doing mediocre on both!

Matt and I are getting very excited about our move to Surprise, AZ.  This next couple of weeks will be super hectic, but we are taking our time driving there and are using it a a vacation.  We are stopping at hotels with pools and won't be driving for more than 7 hours a day.  That makes me VERY happy.  Matt is going to take a couple of weeks off once we get there to help set the house up, since I have only done it a million times before.  But, I'm excited to furnish and decorate the house with him, since we are DOUBLING our square footage.  Thank you Lord.

I hope that I post again before we move, but I certainly am not counting on it, so you shouldn't either.  So there is a good chance my next post will be from the very hot, but very sunny state of Arizona!!
