We had an excellent parent-teacher conference this afternoon with M's teachers, who asked if we could clone her.  They adore her. (!) They think that she is wonderful – always helpful to other kids (especially during peer editing), very diligent, makes very few mistakes on her work, eager to please, perfect score on her book report, gets along with everyone, plays nicely with her sister at recess. It was a very proud moment for us. Such a great conference!

The girls are the best! And their brother N adores them! He gets the widest smiles around them – he just loves to watch them and see what they are doing. He is the most smiley baby – so sweet.

Too tired to post more!
