Lucille Graduated from Kindergarten!!!

Winter 2010/2011

Fall 2010

Piper started first grade and Lucille started kindergarten. Lucy has the same teacher Piper had, Ms. Tobias. She is wonderful! The girls love school and are both in accelerated reading groups. The girls are taking piano lessons again with Miss Kate. They can play a mean Hot Cross Buns! Piper is in gymnastics again this year and Lucy has started taking Ballet and Tap lessons.
Trent is staying busy with work and home improvement projects. As I mentioned in my previous post, I started a Special Ed Para position. I also keep very busy running the girls around to all their activities and 'play dates'. Why are they called play dates? It sounds goofy. When I was a kid, you just simply played or hang out. Now parents have to call each other, make a plan, and schedule a play date. Ridiculous.

Whoa - Remember Us?!?!

I know you probably thought we bought a yacht and set sail in the Caribbean - we wish! No, life has just kept us all very busy. I mean WAY Super Duper busy. There have been new jobs, school and homework, dance and piano lessons, and having fun of course! I will start by saying, I had a job change last fall from an administrative position at the school district to a Special Ed Paraprofessional (classroom assistant/teacher's aide). Being in the classroom has kept me away from the computer-the internet machine. I have to admit, I did all my blogging and on-line shopping during office hours...shhh! I have the summer off - I'm not bragging-just informing, so I will continue to blog in the mornings with my coffee. I will catch you up to speed, upload recent pics and let you know what is in store for the Stern Clan this year.

With much peace and love,
Angie, Trent, Piper and Lucille
