I am back from BEA! I had a good time – very tiring but a lot of fun. I have lots of books en route to the house – I will e very excited when they arrive! I did bring a balloon dog home that A was immediately taken with. His name is now Skipper. And A has an advance copy of Wendy Mass's fall release, signed to her, which she is very excited about.

Here is what happened while I was gone:

• The girls performed beautifully in Arts Night. Daddy took photos and videos which I will upload tomorrow!
• Both girls recited their poems at school today and they did a great job!!
• N is clapping more and giving high fives!
• N is walking SO well.
• A fish died.
• It got really hot.
• A had her last Notebusters meeting – rehearsal for solos tomorrow and performance on Sunday.

I will upload pics tomorrow. I am so happy to be home!!
