I really need to commit to blogging more, especially since my major excuse is no time. This is exceptionally absurd considering I write in a journal every night. So let's see, what's been going on with me...sadly, not a lot. I taught summer school, which was nice, at least I should say the extra paycheck is nice. I had two students who learned to speak English this year. Much to their dismay, I still understand a fair amount of Spanish so they're murmurs about how mean I was were not as secret as they would have liked!

Since that has ended I've been spending time at home with Harper. I'll take this moment to gloat a little about how smart I think my daughter is, and of course, my opinion is not biased in any way. I'm in awe about how much she has changed in the past year. She has said her first word, "dog". She loves dogs, LOVES them. There are no plans for the immediate future to get her a dog, however. I'd her to be old enough to help take care of it. Otherwise, it's just another being for me to clean up after.





She has also decided that she no longer hates the bathtub. Thank goodness. Bath time for the past few months has been torture. She would scream and cry and attempt to climb out of the bathtub. Now she loves it. Whatever. I'm sure her mind will change on this or something else in the near future. I always said I wanted to daughter with an opinion, a mind of her own. Boy did I ever get one!
