2 Weeks

Our McBean is coming back to us on Saturday. Bob and I have enjoyed our couple time (lots of dinners out, a movie, golf, and a Whitecaps game tonight), but I am ready for us to be a family of 3 again. Bob and I de-junked the McBean's room and picked up a couple of new Star Wars toys and 2 new Star Wars comics to welcome him back. It is a good thing that the comic book store is about 30 minutes away, or all 3 of us would be spending lots of time there.

I am trying to get geared up for the start of first grade. The school sent home a supplies list, so I am looking forward to taking the McBean shopping. Hopefully it will get him ready as well. We also need to readjust his schedule so that he is in more of a routine. We also need to have him practice his writing and his cutting (the 2 things that he struggles most with in school). He has been reading like a champ, so that is the one place that we are not concerned.
