Late January 2014

Marlowe and I have had a pretty busy winter with each other so far.  I was really hoping for that since she will be in school full time starting Fall 2014.  We've been in an art class at Crystal Bridges for the past 3 weeks.  Its pretty fun in which we get to do the art together.  She loves creating and doing art, but she could care less about learning about it.  Maybe its her age right now and that will change.  We did get our picture in the local paper.

She's been doing really well in school.  She is now starting to learn to write her last name.  Everyday they learn about a new letter and on the way home from school we discuss what all starts with that letter.  It can be pretty amusing and challenging at times…especially when going over the letters C and K.  I've been doing the watchdog Dad thing at her school.  Its been good for both of us.  I just help out the teachers and read to the kids.  The teachers seem to really appreciate the help

She really likes gymnastics.  She's about to move out of the little kids class.  From looking at the girls in her next class they look as old as 6th graders.
