It has been a good week. Sammy is doing well. Keegan is back to his loveable/loving, well adjusted self. I found out that his new classroom is $20 cheaper per week and they had forgotten to tell me.

She has the best smile and she is just as fun and feisty as I suspected she would be. I finished my grant this afternoon and celebrated by having a sliver of someone's birthday cake. I am leaving now to change before I head down to see Erika, Jay and Sammy.

Fiesty! I like it. I had a great time and look forward to doing it again. I will, however, have the phrase, "how manyyyy??" embedded in my brain. That woman was incredibly loud!
Have a safe trip down.
You survived! It was a tense month with Sammy and everything-- I can't even imagine. I hope March will go very smoothly for you.
