Our Fall baseball season is almost over, & I am so glad! I'm usually sad to see it end, but not this year. There have been several weeks when we've been at the field e.v.e.r.y. night - and that's just too much. The end of October will also bring the end of travel ball which I WILL be sad about, but we all need the break!
So:
- We are on Day 33 of school. So far, so good. Ryan's "core" is World Geography, and so far he LOVES it! Cade is doing MFW's Kindergarten again, with Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. It took us a little while to get into it, but I really believe that the key is just to keep doing it. Persistence.
- Cade has started occupational therapy in addition to his normal speech therapy. It is hard for him, but he is working hard & making improvements! He is scheduled for an MRI next month, & hopefully we'll finally be able to get to the bottom of things!
- We have played almost 30 baseball games & 5 men's softball games between the boys & Brian.
- Ryan's travel ball team, Newton County RAGE, has played 4 tournaments, taking 2nd place in one & finally winning the championship last weekend. To say they were excited is a major understatement!
- We are enjoying the cooler weather, and the rain we're finally getting! It's supposed to warm up again over the weekend, so we'll enjoy it while we can!
I am really looking forward to the slowdown the end of this month will bring, and trying to settle in before the holidays come around.
This is normally my favorite time of year, but this year for some reason I seem to be a bit melancholy. Truly, I think the reason is because both the boys' birthdays are right after Christmas. They will be turning 9 & 7; you'd think I would be used to this by now, but the days seem to speed by so quickly now and they're growing up so fast!
