March '07 Summation

March, much like every month it seems, has proven to be quite busy for us here in the Tokarski household. But one thing definitively dominated our focus: The Health Roller coaster. It seems that we've been battling one bug after the next all month long. Strep, Gastroenteritis, Fifth Disease, and, to round things out, a few good old fashion colds. And all this just in time for April allergies. Woo hoo!

But, as always, God is good, and there is much to be thankful for.

Amanda passed her admissions testing for Red Lion and will be in first grade there next year. She also continues to utter things daily that we should be writing down:



Amanda:
"I liked the girl who gave me my test."
Mommy:
"You mean Mrs. Smith. She's not a girl."
Amanda: "You mean she's a boy?"

Abby had her ears pierced for her birthday and they are healing nicely. Just last week she was finally able to change out the starter studs and was able to put in the earrings she got from Aunt Debbie for her birthday; she was very excited.



Alex continued his quest this month to be taller than Mommy. Seriously, he continues to do very well in school and is growing into quite the young man.




Aidan is doing new things almost daily. His walker is no longer used for walking but for carrying; he walks around the kitchen holding it up in the air. He has opened his first door, has began making 'Vroom' noises when playing with cars, and has begun drive-by huggings; he will come from across the room, hug your leg, then go back across the room. This may occur several times in succession.

In any event, spring has sprung, the daffodils on the side of the garage are blooming, health is returning, the taxes are filed, and April is right around the corner. God bless...
