Update

Jill has her piano recital tonight and is a little nervous. She's had her piece memorized for months and I think she'll do great if she doesn't get stage fright. :) I'm so proud of her. She's done girl scouts and piano this year and been excited for all of it. I think she's ready for a little break though! Yay summer time!

Miranda is really wanting to read, so I've been working with her some on it. Today in the car, she was holding something and wanted to know what it said. She said, "Mom, what does M - A - blah, blah, blah, L - L - C spell?" I had to laugh. I said, "You can't say blah, blah, blah, and expect me to figure out the word!"

Natalie is speaking much more clearly these days and saying new words all the time. We were talking about Christmas the other day and she got all excited like she knew what that meant and said, "CHRISTMAS!!!" perfectly. So cute. Then when I tried to get her to repeat it for Ben, it was like, "Kwissmus." Try again. "Plisba." Yeah, nice. Make me look dumb in front of Dad! Oh well! :)

Ben got his Lasik surgery done last week and everything has gone well. He said he's never seen this clearly even with contacts or glasses. Yay for Lasik!

Young Women's is always busy and I feel so behind but we're getting ready to camp this weekend for a little practice run before Girl's Camp next month. Wish me luck!!!

Sounds like life is fun and busy. Love the updates about your girls--that's the stuff of life, as I like to call it. How is your mom doing?

Ok first off I love the "people like me enough to comment" button....GUILT TRIP!!!

And I am so excited for Jill...tell her congrats! That is huge. I never learned to play anything better then "I dropped my dolly in the dirt".

Thanks for the update!

blah, blah, blah is HILARIOUS! At first I thought you were saying that because you weren't really listening or you couldn't understand her, her actually saying it just beyond funny!

What funny girls! SOunds just like something Miranda would say. :) I can't wait for Grayce to start piano. As of right now, we are going through the whole Kindergarten dilemma you guys did with Jill. I am sure it will all work out. Thanks for the update!
