Fast pace

So I'm chillin at the Little Gym watching Marigold kick butt in her leotard! She is a little girl now, no trace of baby left. She is really strong willed and fun and independent! She loves our new babies, Cocoa and Flash. She doesn't like them she LOVES them!
She is totally ready for a five day per week program. But yesterday she had a playdate from 3-5 and then fell asleep in the car. Marigold is awful when she wakes up from a nap. She never naps anymore so we are not used to it. But I digress...we have to sign up for a week of camp in NY while I am with josh at the Macabi games in Israel! And no one in lower westchester takes 3 year olds for a full day on a weekly basis. Hello? What is up? Basically our best option is Solomon schechter but that costs an arm and two legs. I'm going to call the JCC and ask for special favors.

High on You

On our way to Ari's birthday party and I dowloaded this awesome app so I can post to our blog from my phone!!! This iphone has changed my life in many amazing ways but the one major negative is that I don't use the PC so much except for conceptis puzzles. So I haven't kept up with the blog but now I can!! Woe is the day that conceptis makes an iPhone app.
It's only 8:15 and the girls are already watching a DVD. That can't be good. But josh and I found channel 2 on Sirius radio, the blend. Josh describes it as Amanda's top ten. Right now it's High on You by Survivor.

Is God angry? That is what Libi asked with fear written all over her face as balls of hail pounded our car last Sunday night. God's anger must be on her mind as she is learning about the 10 plagues for Pesach. I have asked myself that same question recently as many mainstays of our modern life seem to be falling apart.

Now, as I lie in bed today with swollen glands, a terribly sore throat, and aches and pains, I don't have the mental energy to blog about the future of life as we know it.

However I can try some brief updates...
Julia has now competed in two Developmental Team Meets in far-away parts of Pennsylvania. She did so well at both meets. She practices so hard during each week and has clinched some important skills for getting to Level 5 which may happen next year. The Championship Meet is on May 31 and we are looking forward to it. Third grade is going well too. Julia has found a best friend, Madelyn. They have a special babytalk language that they speak with each other (it drives me crazy), but I'm happy for her.
