Long time No Post!

Summer is here and Abbi and I are once again travleing to be with Jr. This summer we are in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Last summer, we were in Cedar City, UT. It is amazing to be able to spend summers somewhere other than home. However, I do miss my family, church, and tending my flower beds.

Abbi had a great year in Preschool! Her teacher and assistants were wonderful. She was so blessed to have been in that classroom. We have spent most of this summer so far getting ready for kindergarten. We are working on using scissors, coloring, etc. Having taught kindergarten for three years, I know these skills are important. We also bought her an Ipad. Which she loves and I think is amazing!

We are also working on potty training. Today is Day #2 in panties for her. Only one accident so far, however, she does not tell me she needs to go. I have her on a schedule. About every three hours or so we visit the potty!! LOL I figure if I can habit train her, then eventually she will come to understand and feel she needs to go on her own.

I am so proud of her this summer!! She tries really hard on her "lessons". She does get frustrated easily when things get hard and wants to give up. I have tried to encourage her to keep trying and sometimes she does.

So far so good.............
