Photoless

I have not updated in a while. Last weekend was consumed with homecoming duties at the college, a long day. I thought I would have photos of the girls but they chose to stay with Grandma. This week has been another full one. Evelyn got her very first report card on Tuesday. I meant to take a photo of her with it before signing it and sending it back to school but did not. Oh well. She is doing great in school. We were gearing up for a fun event with 50s day for her class. Mamaw Flora did an excellent job making her a poodle skirt to get her ready for this event. We had recently bragged about Evelyn getting this far in to the school year without sickness and what do you know, she came down with a fever. It lasted about 24 hours with no other symptoms, just long enough to miss the 50s day. We are going to have to just dress up as she would have and take pictures because now I do not have those cute photos to share. Today was Evelyn's first celebration assembly (awards after each 9 weeks) at school. Evelyn got several recognitions and I did take my camera for the event but the photos came out dark just like my friend Angela said they would. Oh well. Emelia has been doing great. She loves us all but is still very much a daddy's girl. She has been putting together a lot of words. She also recognizes many letters that our names begin with. She almost has counting to 10 down thanks to Mr. Duke. I am very pleased with her progress. It seems like quite a while but she has just been with us four months now. The weather is supposed to be very nice this weekend. Maybe we can get out and take some photos to share. :)
