hi auntie beth!!

nothing new and exciting. just saying hello to beth! HI. haha...
we all have this stupid cold/flu bug. i haven't been taking care of myself, and it finally socked me. gross.i guess today i will make an effort to stay superhydrated & kick up the vitamin c. (even though i think that works much better as a preventative, not a symptom destroyer!)
charlie is on early release this week for parent teacher conferences. met with mrs konzek on tuesday. she says she wishes she has twenty one charlie's in her class. and he is her top reader. just needs to work on comprehension. and she told me i could gear his homework more toward his cognitive skills. like there was a fill in the blank number  page this week. a few blanks to fill in the numbers up to twenty. she said go ahead & keep writing & he turned the paper over & continued writing numbers up to 112. (jeez).
ack! 815! gotta run...charlie finished his apple pie, time to get to the bus soon.
isaiah's speech coordinator will be here at nine today too.

congrats to luke & rebecca
