Katie Here

So this is the favorite child here again taking over the duties for my mother. The things i do out of love haha. Anywho school starts Monday and i am kinda having a brain aneurysm about it. Summer just seemed like it was way shorter then it should have been, i am just getting into my "ready mode." Ya know? But ya it starts on Monday and my sisters are excited about their new teachers.
Tanner is doing really well, he has the language down, he writes home telling us how much he loves the people, and it sounds like he finally is a true missionary. I know everyone out in the field is a missionary but there is a certain point where they like get into the full mode, well he is there.
Sara is loving China, sorta. She is homesick but that is to be expected. She can say a couple of things in Chinese, just enough to get by. The group she is in isnt allow to go to any Olympic activities so they know just as much as we do. She sounds excited to teach the kids now.
I am so sad school is starting. I really don't want to go, not because it wont be a learning experience i just love the freedom of summer. I babysit all the time, and i love it. My life seems so boring to other people but i am very content just doing what i do.
The littles are just being little girls. They are so ready for school, we are all ready for them to go to school too :) They just are really active children, running, screaming, playing, screaming.... just normal kid stuff.
Halle is the "Mirical" child. She can roll from her stomach to her back and from her back to her stomach. She can reach for toys, lift her head. Her doctors are just amazed at the things she is doing. She is a really funny gal, we sure love her.
My parents are so boring. I guess that is just what happens what you get older. My mom is going to be the co-PTA president at William Penn this year. She is really "busy" with that. My dad works out of our house, enough said. Our house still functions with me being the oldest so i am thinking it should be permanent. Thats just what i am saying
