Today I have sores and aches everywhere from doing yoga yesterday.
I feel like I am 70 years old. SIGH.
My yoga teacher Rita is great. She teaches those movements that
are so powerful, you don't really feel it until the day after!! I really
enjoy her class. The class is always packed full, if I go in a few minutes
late the space is all gone.

Fall is finally here. The weather is suddenly cool and a little chilly. This
morning I got all fall clothes for the boys out. It took me 2 hours!! I
don't have energy to take out my fall clothes now. We really enjoy
this cool weather, because it won't be long before winter is here when
it will be so freezing cold.

My best friend is coming from Germany in 2 weeks. I am happy to
think about it. She is coming for her dad's birthday(a surprise) but
hopefully we will have time to get together. We've been friends since I
was 15 years old. And it's been 17 years! Can you believe it!! Oops I
just unveil the secret of my age! When she comes we will be able
to celebrate our birthdays(1 month apart) together. Although I will be
32 we've decided we will celebrate our 18 year old birthday... :p
It's been at least 15 years that we last celebrated our birthdays
together. But good friends are forever. This is really true. -smile-

Jacob is taking a nap right now. He hasn't been taking naps since
he started kindergarten but today he is extra tired. He was such a
good boy. He finished all his homework(assigned by me) before
he went to bed. I try to let him learn something everyday he gets
home from school. One reason is that I don't really trust the public
school system here in the US, and the other reason is that I want
to be part of his learning experiences. I've always had the dream of
homeschooling but I realize it's very difficult and it takes too much
discipline and planning which I lack. But now everyday just 30 minutes
to a hour I enjoy learning something new with my big boy. It's fun.
Jacob currently is learning phonics and math(and very rarely, piano)
at home. most of the time he is very cooperative, willing to learn
what I have in store for him. When Jacob is learning Timothy usually
sits next to us and draws his pictures. I don't want to force him to
any programmed learning yet because I want to keep his learning
expericence a positive one. But sometimes when Jacob reads out
loud Timothy would repeat, and it's double reward for me!

Tonight we have home meeting at our house. Since now everyday
I try to clean the house a little, it's no longer such a big burden
to clean the whole house before the meeting. I bought some snacks
and deserts for the meeting, and hopefully we will all enjoy Christ
tonight!

One of the fish died. And Timothy is bugging me to take it out of the
tank...right now!! But I really dread it, I want to wait until Philip gets
back home to take care of it... yikes!

ok.. that's long enough for today.
