Recovering

It seems that everyone is on the road to recovery! Just some coughs and runny noses hanging around. Let's hope we don't do that again anytime soon.
We started back with their schoolwork yesterday. I think Juan has forgotten things in just a few days. Don't think we'll be taking the summer off with him for sure. Maicol complained as usual, but managed to stick with it and get his work done. He did tell me his throat was too sore to do reading (but not too sore to ask a thousand questions). I guess reading is different than asking questions. :)
We had a nice ice storm yesterday, so I let them go out to see what it was like. Little ice pellets coming down for most of the afternoon and into the evening. They didn't stay out too long, but it was a fun (and new) experience for them. Maicol went out and shoveled off the sidewalk. He also had to prove that you can ride a bike on ice after Dan told him he would slip and fall. I don't think he fell, but did slide around some while we were watching. They cancelled his Upwards soccer evaluation night, so Dan will be taking him tonight for that. He's very excited to play. Not so sure Juan understands what's going on, but we hope that just getting to play with other kids will be fun for him and encourage him to work on his English.
Have a good Wednesday!
