1. My computer was picked-up on Tuesday, only to find that the power cord was damaged by a certain three-year-old, so now I'm still computer-less. Til tomorrow.
2. Fisher is now three-and-a-half. The extra half means he no longer pulls the kind of crap I spoke of in #1.
3. First grade is going splendidly. Tomorrow is the second spelling test. Spelling tests! It's the real deal, first grade.
4. My lovely Aunt Lois came for a visit on Sunday. It's lovely to have people visit your home and see how you live.
5. Fisher is doing super on his drop-off preschool days. I mean, the independence is astounding. When we're out he wants to pee in his own stall. Locked. I tell you.
6. Swim class started this week, and both kiddos are enjoying themselves. I am easily reminded of the sobbing Fisher in his first swimming class this past spring, and so happy to see how far he's come being comfortable and having fun in the water. And then I look a few lanes over and see Alla swimming, I mean doing her best at this new front crawl thing, and it's like with reading - you remember when they couldn't, and it wasn't that long ago, and now they can, and it's amazing.
7. I'm currently enjoying my afternoon cup of green tea with a tiny bit of raw honey. It's just above 50 out there. But supposed to be in the 70s next week!
8. I really want to take the kids to see The Lion King, and that is really hard to do when your six-year-old has two birthday parties and a soccer game this weekend.
9. Books we're currently reading: Game of Thrones (Ron), Secret Daughter (me), Prilla and the Butterfly Lie (Alla), and Machines Go to Work (Fisher).
10. Honeycrisps are here!

I love reading your updates. Matt is reading Game of Thrones too (not sure I'll read it, but I sure did love the first season on HBO). Will keep my eye out for Honeycrisps!
