Absentee and Updates

Wow, I am TERRIBLE at updating this!

We had a very uneventful summer (which in some ways is quite a good thing). The new school year is off to a good start. Elliot began 3-year old preschool at The Laurel Hill School. She is doing quite well with not only the transition of starting full day preschool 3 days a week, but also academically. She has begun reading and math with the 4-year old classes, and has already learned to read her "-an" words (i.e. Fan, Dan, Man, Nan, Ran, Can). We are really proud of her!

Mommy Steph and Daddy Dave have begun our tenth year of teaching, which seems unbelieveable. Luckily, we both have the same schedules we had last year, which makes a new school year start off a little more easily. With all the teacher job cuts around the country and especially on Long Island, we were both not only safe, but our jobs remained untouched.
