Roller Skating

Today I had an opportunity to volunteer at Eva's school for a special activity.  In her gym class they have been doing roller skating and there were 3 different dates that parents could come and volunteer on.  I picked today because I didn't have to worry about Maggie because Eva's gym class was during Maggie's preschool.  Eva was so happy to see me even thought she knew I was coming.  I had so much fun helping the children get all their pads, skates and helmets on.  I had so much fun watching Eva and all the children trying so hard to skate and weren't afraid when they would fall.  Eva would fall but then she would just get back up.  I am so glad that I was able to brighten up her day.

Potty Training

Maggie is doing really well with potty training.  We started about 2 weeks ago with really pushing her to go on the potty and it helped too that she was showing more and interest with going.  She is wearing pull-ups and goes on the potty at least 2-3 times a day.  She has gone number #2 once on her potty but hasn't done it since.  She also has started telling me that she has to go potty, her pull-up is ususally dry and she does go.  Even when her pull-up is dirty, she sometimes will still on her potty and goes as well.  My goal is too get her in underwear and potty trainded by April when she turns 3 because next fall she will be in preschool.

 When Eva graduated from 8th grade all she wanted was a pair of old school Michael Jordan shoes that were black, white and blue.  So that is what we got her.  Now for Maggie we wanted to something to make her feel special since she had a difficult time with the whole COVID-19 pandemic.  She has always loved musicals, so we got her tickets for her and Jim to go see the musical WICKED.  They finally went tonight, and they loved it.  Jim said it was better than the first time he saw it with me.  They enjoyed a nice dinner on the 21st floor of a hotel and had 4 row tickets in orchestra section.  So glad that she felt like a princess.
