Sheniah

I wanted to get one final posting done before we head off to Mexico tomorrow - EARLY - morning! We are so excited about our trip, but I am so proud of Sheniah I just had to get this posting done!

Sheniah has had a great couple of weeks in school - in fact, the whole year has been great. She is making good grades, making new friends and just maturing so much this year. I think middle school has been good for her.



Last week she had a play for her social studies class. They have been studying the Roman Empire, so they did a play depicting all they had learned. It was called "The Roman Soap Opera"! It was so cute - and really, the Roman's were probably the earliest soap opera - everyone was getting married, getting divorced, having children and killing each other! I was also excited because David was able to come so he took care of the little man and I was able to watch the entire play. Anyway, these are pictures from the play.



I think Sheniah really enjoyed it alot - I know I did!























Michael was not really excited about the play itself - but he was happy to see his big sister and give her a congratulatory drooling when it was all over!










Then this week Sheniah had a Science Fair at school. She knew her project would be on display but what was a suprise was to find that she and her group had placed 3rd! It was so exciting for her...and I was so proud of her.












Here she is with her friend and project pal Chelsea. They're so cute!














This is her and her group at the award ceremony yesterday at school.












And here is the award winning project! That's my girl - the little scientific buff!















Finally, Michael is doing great too. Here are some shots from the last few days. He loves self-feeding, hanging with daddy and rolling around in his walker. I think we have created a coffee addict, though!


















































Well, wish us luck on the trip! We are prepared for 4 plane-fulls of people to hate us by the time we come home next Friday! Poor Sheniah!
