Back online!!

Sorry it has been a while. We have survived the past week and a half without internet. Don't ask how but we made it. Actually it wasn't that bad, just a bit incovenient. The kids pulled out things they hadn't looked at in months, years or longer. James pulled out his guitar and actually tried to teach Jenna a song or two. Homework was finished and books were opened. So it wasn't all that bad.
The kids finally got their Christmas present from Papa Jim and Nana. Saturday it was delivered and the kids love it!! The big ones too. They got the Wii. Thanks so much Papa Jim and Nana it was SOOOOO worth waiting for!! So there wasn't much done this weekend other than games for the kids. Jan and I did get out of the house on Sunday and went to Ijmuiden to walk in the wind on the beach with Corona. It was super nice. When we got home and got the kids in bed it was finally time for us to be able to check out their new toy. What a riot!!
I started working. It isn't alot of hours, right now about 10 a week. I am a bus aide. I am riding the bus with two kids with epilepsie. I am there in case they have an attack. These kids have severe disabilies. I am not sure how long this is going to last but it feels good helping and getting out of the house at least an hour per day. I now have a week and a half under my belt and they already know who I am and what it means when I am there.
I will get some pictures of the kids on the Wii and post them soon!
