So, I've hit that part in the semester where I am just really tired. I'm enjoying school, mostly, but I am losing motivation to study. I have a test in pathophysiology Tuesday and I am avoiding it like the plague. I love clinicals weeks. I don't love the waking up at five part but other than that I think its great and am learning so much in the hospital. I need to just get started on the patho. Once I begin it is easy to finish; my problem is in ignition, the cruise works fine.

The children are doing well. My daughter is loving Art Memory! She is excited about the UIL competition. I am realizing how bright she actually is. Her memory is outstanding. She has seventy or so works of art on flashcards and she is charged with recalling the artist and the title of the piece. She had them all down over a week ago, roughly two weeks after receiving the cards. She needs no prompting at all. I am very impressed.

The baby is growing every day. I fear the winter clothes he has may not fit all winter. He is very busy. He is always trying to figure things out. He is learning through 'cause and effect', as I learned years ago in a child development course. He is a joy and I absolutely love the way his eyes light up when he smiles!
