A Brief History of Time - part 2

Well, I am obviously not very good at blogging. Some more events that have happened in the last 2 months are:

Rebecca turned 8 years old. That is a big deal in our religion since 8 is the age of accountability. Meaning that she is now old enough to know right and wrong fully and make choices that will affect her standing with God. Children are also baptized when 8 years old and covenant to follow God and keep the Commandments. And Becca was baptized at the end of September. It was a beautiful service and she is a beautiful girl and we are very proud of her.
We haven't had much else going on lately. Just life as usual. The kids are growing. Keiffer, Becca and Camilla are all doing very well in school. We even got a note from Camilla's teacher about what a great reader she is. They have lists of sight words that they need to learn to read in less than a minute. Camilla passed off the first grade sight words in September. Miss P said that was the quickest she has ever had anyone pass them off. And she even passed them off with the new Principal! Becca and Keiffer are also both doing very well in school.

Anna, Giulia and I just hang out around the house. I wanted to work more with Anna to get her ready for kindergarten next fall, but I always seem to run out of hours in the day. We do try to got to story time at the library once a week. I guess I just need to have more structure so I don't waste my time with computer/TV/books.

Edited to add pics.
