Still Here......

Right now I am putting a lot of faith in Environment Canada and hoping that they are right about the storm that is about to hit. I am sitting here way past my bedtime and I am really hoping for a day at home, to get caught up on a lot of odds & ends.

Today the girls got their letters written to Santa. Poor Emily is fighting a stomach bug right now, but she really wanted to get her letter written. This year Hayleigh was able to write her letter all by herself, needing help only a couple of times with spelling. She is a smart girl and growing up so fast. Most times when she was unsure of how a word was spelled she would go looking for that word in books or in the case of the toys, she brought out the toy magazine. The only problem with bringing out the toy magazine is that she finds more toys that she would like and the rule is that she has to narrow it down to one toy that she really, really would like. Emily's letter was short, sweet and too the point. She wrote her entire letter by herself needing help with the spelling. Her writing has come a long way in the last few months.

Now they are marking the calender as to the number of sleeps. I love their excitement!
