I'm back!!!

Ok, I guess I will say something.  I don't know why I have been absent for so long.  Partly because my daughter made me a facebook.  Before that August was full of things like girls camp, helping Kim with Amy's baby shower (which turned out me mostly doing it), moving Amy and Mike up here for a week before helping them move back to Provo, and attending BYU education week (one of my favorite things)!  School has been going well for my last two teenagers.  One is highly dramatic and (the youngest is just the opposite).  Sometimes when the house is fairly calm he will blurt out, "will everyone just calm down, calm down!" (He never says that when he is down in the basement pounding away on his drums!)  Then if I drive him to the bus stop we will just be sitting there in the car talking,  waiting for the bus (which we can see coming from a block away) when he will exclaim, "Oh no!!!"  Then he jumps out of the car and runs to the bus.  I heave a sigh of relief (that I don't home school them), JK,  and drive back home.
