What a week we have had. The house is almost finished. The new color looks fabulous. We really are impressed with the workmanship. This week they will finish the soffiting, put up the fixtures and clean up. We can hardly believe that this is almost over.

Hannah started swim lessons and is doing really well. She is growing up so fast. She is getting more and more independent. I didn't think this day would ever come.

Elainea is continuing to progress. She is a sassy little girl that is full of energy. If you look up the term spitfire in the dictionary you will see her picture. Her and her sister have totally bonded and will be life-long sisters and friends. I am so proud at the progress she has made. She understands English very well and is working very hard at pronouncing new words.

Today we are supposed to hear the official response for the builder's lawyer. We are praying that they will settle out of court.

Talk to you soon....
