It's been busy around here. Yesterday we had to get some plumbing work done and today we had the basement carpet cleaned. We are also trying to get prepared for school, which we'll start on Thursday. We went to a birthday party for Race's best friend last weekend and we had Persian food. This weekend we have another birthday party and then in a few weeks Race will have his birthday. I am still waiting to get a report from Van's hearing test before I can send in the information to the school system here to find out if he qualifies for speech therapy at the local elementary school.
