quick update and pictures!

Jess
 - starting my masters of Education with k-8 math and science focus in two weeks (that is - if the books get here)
 - interviewed for a position at my current school. Still no news on a yes or no
 - Successfully encouraged enough girls to have a true basketball team (started with 5 and are now up to 10!)
 - led a dance routine at school for arts and culture month (the wobble!!)
 - got to spend a WONDERFUL weekend in the rainforest with friends from Seattle

Kimi
 - taking on the role of athletic director even though he hasn't officially been given the title (yet)
 - said the other day "yes, let's go to Seattle for the summer!"....no tickets in hand yet, I'll keep you posted
 - spending way too much of our own money on his high school soccer team

Layna
 - Reading short word books like hop on pop
 - leading in singing for arts and culture month
 - learning to share the spotlight with her younger brother

Jonah
 - doing things in his own jonah way. He cannot be sped up once he's put his mind to doing something a certain way
 - learning that there are consequences for actions
 - using his "cuteness" to get his way with his teachers and with Janet - so yes, he's manipulative
 - working on phonetically sounding out his letters

Pics of our life here. Just some street scenes and pics of the forest
