Same today. I took Rayna to "school" & dropped her off. She was reluctant, like always. I am glad that she doesn't cry anymore - like she did when I took her to daycare! For about 4 -6 mos (a semester - a semester & 1/2), Rayna cried every time I dropped her off at daycare . She did eventually stop, but like I mentioned earlier, she refused to verbally speak to anyone! :( I feel really bad because she missed out on playing with the children. SHE played, on her own, but never with anyone else;(

Today, I didn't take any photos of the kids, so I am going to share an old photo from July. This pic is from July 12th, 2007. We went the the Mohonk Nature Preserve. Rayna LOVES animals. . . She is going to change the world;)

Have a great day all!

This one is going to be about the kids.

I have blogs for this & that. I think the other I will focus on the rehab aspects, or animals in general.

The other is for my photo of the day. I will post 1 pic a day there. Then, I am also going to have a "houses of NY". . . They won't necessarily be "exotic" or big, or beautiful, or anything. Just houses that I happen to take a photo of.

So, I will move my post about Rayna's first day of "Jump Start" to this blog & then continue on with the kids from there!


>>>> August 13th, 2007 --> My other photos of today, include several of my daughter. She went back to school today. Well, not "technically" today - but my youngest (of 4) is starting Kindergarten this fall, and they do a "JumpStart" program for them. She will go to "Morning Kindergarten" Mon-Thurs for 2 wks. (8 days). This is supposed to help them get an idea of what it is going to be like, however, this is the same little girl who has attended daycare for the last 2 & 1/2 yrs & not spoken a word to anyone inside the daycare in that time. From the time she started, until her last day, she didn't SPEAK a word. Anyhow, here is my "little" girl . . . . on her first day of Jump Start. I ended up staying today {Sigh}



I actually started a new seperate account at Photobucket for more photos. I can't post them all here. . . too bad! I love to take pics! In fact, I am looking into "upgrading" my camera again this coming tax season! I **think** I found the one I want, but I want to look into more reviews & info about it first.

Yesterday in "school", Rayna played the "Name Game" (they had to arrange the magnetic letters of their name on the magnetic board) & got a crown.

Today (8-15), with the program, Rayna went on a field trip to a museum in New Paltz (I think at the college). She said she had fun & she liked that they got to paint:) She likes to paint. However, she didn't talk to anyone yet still.

Rayna will go to the JS program tomorrow, then not on Fri, then Mon-Thurs of next week.

Kymberlee is at Gma & Gpas again (she stayed last nite when we went). We went up yesterday afternoon & had dinner. We also went swimming. April came up with Iz & I took Izzie in the pool with the other kids. April & mom sewed. Then we dropped Jaymz at work & came home.

I will post about my niece Izabella, here too. She is my little pumpkin - princess Belle!:) I don't get to see her much though, so when I know they are going to my parents, I try to go too, so I can see her;)

So here is 2 pics of my lil' princess Belle:

(1 Where did Iz go??) (2 watching my 4 kids in the pool). These pics are from Sunday 8/12/07,

And here is Iz trying to sit on a diaper on the bucket! This pic is from yesterday, 8-14-07
