Homeschool status: Ashleigh is doing great in her 5th grade studies. She is currently reading The Island of the Blue Dolphins. She is doing something with decimals and division in math. We are on a plant unit in science (we do this with the boys).
Elijah our booming 1st grader is catching on to all the letters/ sounds. This is a huge answer to prayer. In math he can count past 100, the 1st time he did it I think he scared himself; he stopped at 106 as though that was to far.
Tewodros is in kindergarten. I went on and put him here as he was observing Elijah and seemed ready to start. He loves the letter/ sound book he does with Elijah. He can count to 11. He loves to sing our ABC song. He can tell you the days of the week. His ability to speak English is amazing, language immersion.
Daddy update: He knows when to take mommy on a date night. Thanks dear! He goes on and gets 2 babysitters (yes we now use 2, hopefully not for long). Our sitters are awesome helpful college students.
Please continue to pray for our family.

Just know that we all go through difficulties in parenting, you are not alone!
Will be praying!!
Suzanne,
I so appreciate your sharing that it is difficult. Since I only see the kids for just a few minutes every week or so, it is easy to see the sweet things (like all of them coming up and giving Kellar a kiss last night) and forget about the magnitude of transition and adjustment for everyone. Cliff and I love you guys and are praying.

Will keep praying. I can see Teddy doing and saying things each week and I am just amazed at your family and all the things you are teaching him! He is such a sweet addition to your family!
