Spring Has Srung

And many other joys!

I love spring. I love all the different shades of green. I love the smell. I love the colors. I love the sounds. I can't get enough of it.

Andrew is now 8 yrs old. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? This is going way too fast. Right now as I type this he is playing so happily in the back ground. I'm going to miss hearing this in just a few short yrs. Why does childhood go so fast? It's not fair.

He went to the Dr's last week for his yearly checkup. He's now 3"11 and weighs 49Ibs. Still on the small side. But Christina was like that so I'm not too worried. The Dr did mention that his distant vision has decreased since he was checked last year, but not so much that he would recommend getting glasses for him, he just wants to keep an eye on it. He is going to recommend him for a referral to the Toronto's Sick Kids for an assessment for ADD/HD. Again, that won't be surprising to find out that he does have it because both Don and I have ADD, and Christina had ADD/HD. But the good thing is the program at that hospital is highly recommended for that.

His karate is going ok, he got his belt taken away for one week because he refused to listen to the Sensei . He has made friends with a little guy, Tosha, he's a sweetheart. He's 5 yrs old, and is also at the dojo quite a bit.

I will be starting to watch his friend Anika (I now consider her like a niece to me) every other weekend while her mom Christine works. This shall be fun :) They fight like brother and sister. Pray for me :P

That's about it for now. I will try and post pics in a bit.
