P's Bday

Last Fri we visited the children's museum to celebrate the bday of P, Jax's friend. The museum photos below were taken before we met up w P and her mom, etc.. Once we met up, we learned of the terrible events in CT, which pretty much ruined the day, weekend, month, etc..

I peeked into Jax's classroom today before class ended and saw her and her classmates dancing away- practicing for her Xmas program. On Fri Jim and I discussed the prospect of homeschooling our kids. But we thought about how much Jackie loves her teachers, and the kids, and the action. Living in a bubble of fear isn't the answer, unfortunately. My anxiety wishes it was- but my anxiety is also the reason the doctor prescribes me Xanax, sooo....

Marching right along.

Jax had swimming today and was awesome, as usual. She struggles w making big paddles w her arms, but her teacher said all kids do at this age.

Hillers is still cute as a button.

Jax ran out of class this AM, hugged Hilly and said "I love you, Hilly."
