Wow, once again too long since posting. Over the course of the past months, we have enjoyed celebrating Kallie's 5th birthday with family, Halloween with a visit from Grandma Mitchell, Thanksgiving in Milwaukee visiting the Mitchells, and a crazy, snowy Christmas with the Moore side. Our Milwaukee visit for Christmas had to be rescheduled due to the storm. We will see them in a couple weeks and enjoy a late Christmas. We also had visitors for New Years. My brother Stan and his fam came down and they also brought my sister's three girls with them, so it was fun to be able to have the company and enjoy being together. I've missed out on 6 years of my neices and nephews growing up, so I really have learned to appreciate the time I have with them now, and enjoy getting to know their personalities. We love family! Other than that, things have been pretty routine for us(I'm not complaining). I have started subbing more often and have enjoyed trying to get plugged into what will be Kallie's school next year. On Thursdays, if I'm not subbing, I have the opportunity to volunteer helping a couple of second graders with their reading fluency and writing. It's been a neat experience. It's a parent literacy program that helps children who are struggling to keep up with their peers get a little extra one-on-one help with reading and writing. Jim continues to be a busy guy with work. The kids are doing well. It has been so nice to listen to Liam do so much talking now. He's quite the entertaining character! Hard to believe he'll be two next month. Kallie is also becoming quite the little lady and enjoys making pictures for people and trying to write words. It's fun to see how far she's come this past year. We truly thank God for our two children, even if they are a handful at times :-) ! Hope you are all happy and healthy and the Mitchells hope 2010 will be a great one for you!
