I'm sorry it has been such a long time since I last posted. I have started back to work, and I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. I have a wonderful class this year. They are great to teach, and I look forward to seeing them every Monday, Tuesday, and half day Wednesdays! Derek is no longer visiting me at school which has been an easy transition! Derek is talking, talking, talking... and now knows how to work on the computer all by himself. It is quite hilarious to watch him find his favorite videos on youtube! He went to the fair for the first time on Sept. 17 and had a blast with the animals. Derek has brought so much joy into our lives!

Ric is in CA for his grandparent's funeral. They died within four days of each other, which was their wish. We are sad they are gone and their memory will live in our hearts forever! Today Derek and I went to Pt. Defiance to feed the ducks, see the dahlias, and swing at the park. It was a beautiful day, but we sure missed Papa.
