5 x 12: february

february, the month of love.  and for us, the month that changed our future.

• after months of stress, emotion, and big decision making our school got the best news.  we will own our entire campus.  i cannot explain what this means to us.  mostly that the kids will have their school, friends and teachers in the fall!

• i can tell you that february for me and bobby was filled with a roller coaster of emotion, what ifs, and lots of prayer.

• jordan finished his last round of testing and interviews for high school.  looking forward to some good news in the next few weeks.

• jordan had his best basketball season ever, scoring a personal best, making a 3-point shot, free throws and even making fouls. (that was a lesson in being more aggressive.)

• andrew had so much fun.  his team didn't fare so well, but he learned the fundamentals of the game and is interested in trying again next year.

• andrew became a marlin for another little league season.

• we had a quiet valentine’s dinner at home with chinese food and sushi.

• sofia celebrated 100 days at school and dr. seuss’ birthday.

• bobby won a bronze medal in his rowing competition.

• we took jordan and a few of his friends to disneyland.  they roamed the park while we hung out with grandma and grandpa tom.

• sofia rode matterhorn, space mountain and tower of terror for the first time - and she loved it.

• i ran and ran and ran.

• i lost my patience with my diy project. it is currently in a bag in the corner of my room.

• sofia had her first sleepover and she survived - so did i.

• we had one last snow day.

• this last week has been full of good news - let's keep up the momentum.

february you rocked it - thank you!
