Simple Pleasures

-Malia's hair is long enough to do this:

(Thanks, Rachael, for the crash course in piggie tails!)

-Daniel is old enough to babysit.

-Matthew has gotten brave enough to try riding his bicycle without the training wheels. He is so close to figuring it out!

-Our elementary has brought back the school choir and Daniel and Nathan are both totally excited about it even though it means going to school early two days a week, even when they are off-track.

-Although we can't afford lessons right now, Nathan is teaching himself (with lots of help from Kev's mom) to play the piano. Our house is filled with music!

-Daniel and Nathan are learning how to change diapers.

-The tulips are coming up...in spite of the fact that it is snowing like crazy right now.

-Kev passed the exam to earn his CISSP (one of the granddaddies of professional certs for computer guys)!
