We have been in the high 60s and low 70s this week. Unbelievably beautiful! There is however a small forest fire already nearby.

We have completed the third quarter at school - one more quarter to go!

One thing we are working on with JB is correcting his "me want/have" language. He has been given an 'I' sign and 'want' sign. He is slowly starting to correct himself! He came home several days from school telling me Matthew was being mean to him. I finally asked the teachers. Seems that Matthew has a hard time understanding JB. When JB talks at school, Matthew yells at him and tells him to quit speaking Spanish to him. Of course JB continues and Matthew gets mad at him. It makes me smile but also prayerful for him that he will have the personality to overcome questions and teasing as he gets older. People that know him are shocked at well he is talking. Those that don't know him, are really starting to pick up on his speech delays. Seems as he gets closer to 4 years old, on paper he is falling further behind. He still chugs along though! He started Occupational Therapy this week so will be interesting to watch the progress there.

The Cub Scouts recently went on a field trip to the Detention Center. Very interesting place and hopefully a place the scouts learned they do not want to be in. It is a newer, 'green' facility. One thing I never realized is that every guard/policeman checks their gun in. No guns are allowed on the premises. Their rec room has a huge garage door at the top that opens up in warmer weather. I guess there is some lawsuit in a nearby town where inmates did not have access to fresh air.

The boys have discovered some of the old TV shows on Netflix. We watch Adam 12 and The Andy Griffith Show. The boys find it so strange that policemen have to ask to use the phone or look for a pay phone. Interesting to see how far we have come in 40-50 years. B gets a huge kick out of Opie on the Andy Griffith Show. I love to listen to him laugh.

Few odds and ends planned for the weekend, nothing huge!
