Weekly Update- Feb. 2-6

2 weeks left.... 2 WEEKS LEFT!!!!!!. I am excited, elated, and anxious all at the same time. Drs. visits at this point come once a week and are very uneventful. I did find out my iron was a little low but since I am already taking 2 iron pills and a prenatal with iron, the dr. said that was a lot. So she thought maybe that was just my iron level. I lost 1 1/2 pounds but that too is normal.

I started a Pen Pal Program within our homeschooling group. We have a fairly large group so there are a great number of kids who have never met each other. They gave their info and then I paired kids up. Every Friday as a part of school, Tera and Daniel write a letter. We started writing a letter to their pen pals every week but decided that might be a little much so they have branched out. Every other week they write their pen pals. The other weeks we pick someone in our family for them to write. One week they wrote Grandma a letter and today they wrote their 4 year old cousin Nate. It is neat to see Tera especially change her writing style to fit the age of the person she is writing. The art of letter writing is fading so we are doing our little part to revitalize it. Now if I can just get myself to write someone a letter.
