If Isa and Ibrahim have one more fight over the Wii... if they arent fighting about which game to play, they then fight about who goes first.. this morning, Isa threw the wii remote on the floor and that ended the game... Last time, he hit Ibo in the eye with it.. Morning moved on.. and eventually we made it out for swimming class. It went well, Ibrahim is really coming along and swam across the pool the short way all by himself, his instructor Mrs. Tanya is really great! She pushes him hard too which he needs, today Isa went under water and had a good time retreiving toys off the steps, he had a new male teacher today which happened to be Mrs. Tanya's husband! We walked home via the park and the hot chocolate machine but not before we stopped by a bakery in part of the hotel and picked up a few goodies. The weather today was fair, not really cold but a nice winter day, we stayed a bit at the park. By the time we got back home and undressed, the door bell rang and to my surprise it was he school crew! It was 4:00pm already, we had left for swimming at 1:30pm, didnt seem like we were out that long.
Dinner was quick grilled cheese sandwhiches and carrots, I also made a trip to the sushi spot with Idreis afterschool, so they had that as well. While we were out we picked up a new camera and also a printer! Finally!, so I will be sure and post lots of photos tomorrow, as soon as I get it working. Luckily I had the guy swith the camera to English so I should be good to go.
Best part of the day was making it back to the gym for a work-out! So nice to have that quiet time to myself.
We have also been working on our Black History Month books, we did not get a chance to do it this evening because the boys went to basketball and I was away, I may try to get up early in the morning and do something with them. Last night we studied Frederick Douglass and also KRS-One, children enjoyed watching Self Destruction video , definently took me back to my younger days.
Very proud to say that the website for my book has also finally be launched.
www.thecollectionpoetry.com
It is not only a way to promote the book but also a way for poets and writers to connect.
So we should see how all that turns out.
Also so glad to have Khalid back home!!!
