Thankful Thursday and School Updates

1) I am grateful for the drive I've had to lose over 15 lbs already. I am feeling so much better physically, mentally and emotionally. It's been a wonderful thing so far and I'm so glad that I finally started doing it.

2) I am grateful for the gift of planning that my Heavenly Father has given me. It may drive others up the wall sometimes, but it's helped me be a better wife, mother and daughter of God. It makes my life a lot less chaotic and helps to cut down on stress big time.

3) I am grateful that it's snowing out, because it means we'll have a white Christmas. I realize we almost always do, but I've never forgotten the brown Christmas we had once when I was in juniour high. It was so disappointing to not have snow for Christmas that year and it has made me grateful for the snow at Christmas every year since then.

As an update, Caleb has improved in many of his subjects since last year. His teacher is very happy with him and the progress that he has made so far this year. She especially commented on his passion for science. I am so thankful that we found out what was going on with him, that we're dealing with it, and that he has such a wonderful teacher this year.

Ty is right where he needs to be for this point in grade 1. His teacher said that she knew that his teacher last year was really worried about my choice to move him up, but his current teacher isn't worried at all and neither am I. He is thriving in grade 1 and I would have done him a serious injustice had I held him back. I am so thankful for the reminder that I made the right choice for him. The EA in his class commented on how happy and full of life he is. Yup, that's definitely Ty :)
