Rambling

Today is a cold, rainy day here in Trinity,NC. It was up in the 70's until now. I'm supposed to be cleaning my house,but who wants to clean house on a day like today? I'd rather be taking a nap with my kids or be curled up on the couch and be reading a good book and enjoy my Christmas tree and listen to my Christmas music. Nothing new is happening here. I took Esteban Lee for an evaluation for speech. He will have to take speech class. He'll probably be starting in Feb. or last of March. The kids and me might go to Mexico in Feb. We will know for sure in about 2 weeks. I got baby Fabian's passport yesterday in the mail. Esteban Lee is doing good in preschool. I must not be a bad teacher after all. I'm surprised at what he has learned in 2 days. I'm only teaching on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 am till 12:00 pm. Fabian finally found his voice and is starting to coo and laugh out loud. Its really cute to see him talking and laughing to himself as he plays. He is such a good baby. He only cries when he has a dirty diaper or is hungry or wants to go to sleep. he is a blessing from God. Cynthia is doing good at potty training. I put panties on her thru the day and a diaper on her when she goes to bed or we go out. It's only been a week and she is catching on fast. My first two catch on to things pretty quick. I'm not sure about Fabian though. He is too laid back to care about learning to crawl or even to stand up. He is content to sit on the floor and play with his toys. Oh well I'm sure he will learn before he turns 18. I hope so any way. :) Well I hope that you all enjoy your families this wonderful Christmas Season. I need to finish cleaning my house before my sweet Hubby comes home with Esteban Lee. They went to get hair cuts after Esteban picked up Esteban Lee from his Christmas party. Have a Merry Christmas and May our wonderful Lord bless every one of you.

Merry Christmas from our house to yours,
Cynthia Darlene Lopez

First Day Of School

Wow! What a day! I decided to teach my son, Esteban Lee preschool at home instead of sending him to preschool. I never dreamed that teaching a 4 yr old how to draw a letter or a circle could be so hard. Why is it so hard to hold a pencil just right and to draw a circle in between two lines? He did OK on coloring in between the lines, recognizing his shapes, and his numbers. He struggles with the writing thing. Was I the same way? We have the same personality. I feel sorry for my poor teachers. Please help me pray for patience. I really need it. We both were almost in tears so I stopped a few minutes early.
Whew! What a morning trying to teach school, potty train my 2 yr old, and take care of my 9 month old baby, and clean house in between. I think that I will feed them lunch and send them to bed so I can finish cleaning the house and crash for a little bit. I hope that I will have a better afternoon. Actually, it probably wasn't as bad as it sounds. Have a wonderful Day!

A New Blog Has Been Created!

I have been reading different blogs and I decided to make one for our family so every one can keep up with what's going on in the Lopez family. I hope that you will enjoy reading my blogs. I am new at this so right now my blog is going to be plain until I can get used to this new technique. I trust that you all will have a wonderful day in the Lord tomorrow. May the Lord bless you all.
