February

Happy New Year!!!
Year of the Tiger (if I am correct).
February 14 is our Valentine’s Day, we celebrate love and give gifts such as chocolates, candy, balloons, flowers (roses), stuffed animals and other love gifts.
I am glad we all have reason to celebrate.
I hope your vacation is going well and that you are keeping warm. I have heard that it is cold and has freezing rain there. Make sure to stay bundled up and stay healthy.
We have had a little bit of snow and even had a snow day. This is what the students pray for, create little dances for, and check the news in the morning for. If there is too much snow or it is too cold outside schools will close for the day and students don’t go to school. We had a snow day last week. K.C. checked the news at 4am and let me know so that we could sleep in. Jack was excited to see the snow and to play in it. Unfortunately, it wasn’t good snow for making a snow man, but we did play around and threw snow balls at each other. He liked ‘making tracks’ in the snow – he likes to see his footprints. Check out the video attached (you can even hear him singing a little happy song).
Other than that, things are pretty good. Busy with school and work. K.C. did get his driver’s license and is driving the car all on his own. Sometimes it scares me to think of him doing that, but I know he is a good trustworthy kid.
Jack is having fun at school and is doing so much art work that I have a whole wall filled at work with his pictures and projects.
I hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
