Just want to raise my Mamma & Bertil to the sky, for helping me out every Tuesday and Thursday while the kids go to hockey! I couldn't do it without you! :) also my Sister Jeanette, for doing all that you do, and still have time to help out. Mwwwaaahhh!

We are getting VERY excited here at the house, as Daddy is coming home for a longer period of time.Yahoo! home tomorrow and for the rest of this year. It will be so nice to have another set of hands here
at the house. But have to say, the kids have been awesome, (after some immense yelling!)
Looking forward to share the parenting, and enjoy some nights of Glogg with friends leading up to Christmas time.(Swedish Mold wine)
Kids are doing great in school and are really settling in with friends and their activities quite well.
Went to a school meeting yesterday with jack, and he is doing GREAT, his reading skills and math skills are beyond his age (THANKS Mrs.Luck ) but as far as concentrating.... I am speechless! we have HUGE difficulty with getting Jack to sit down and to focus... Please, if anyone have any tips, send them my way.
we've tried wiggly Chairs, stress balls, etc,etc.... just to get him to sit down to do his homework takes me 30-45 minutes every day, and when he finally sits, he does his homework without hesitation and with perfection in minutes. siigggh!
Molly is doing great too, considering she is a whole year younger than the rest of the class, she is doing great, a little more playful than the other kids, but doing great in both starting to read and write. her social skills are so broad, and she is friends with EVERYONE! (wonder who she gets that from??!)
Calvin is Loving daycare, and speaks so much now, mostly Swedish, but when dad gets home he switches straight over to English. But for most parts he says it in both languages, probably to make sure we understand. :) this morning while jack was eating his breakfast he leaned in for jacks food, and said "maste dela"! ("you must share")
Ok, so with all the kids away this morning, I gotta dash and do as much as possible while having the time!
Laundry, groceries, shower, vaccum..... ahhh, never ending story!
Love you all!
