FEW NIGHTS AGO
We play LOTS of games, Mim loves them and we all get in there and play, laugh, and compete with each other...BTW - Mim is very competitive with games....
Tuki 
Ve being goofy
Mim
TONIGHT
Ve and Tuki play almost non-stop once we all get home from school. Tuki at her finest
Ve sporting her new hair style. Mim taught me this style and she did one side of Ve's head and I did the other and it still took us an HOUR to do it!!!
Mim exhausted. She is adjusting to the long days at school, early wake times and then of course the dreaded homework. We placed her into 5th grade this year, one year behind where she would normally be. Already she is catching the hang of it, but it does require me helping her every step of the way. I did this with Ve last year, and now she is pretty good about doing her own work, so I know Mim will get there in time too.

Great pics!!! Love all the happy smiles!
Love it that the TV is on and no one is paying attention :)
how cool is that....Mim is able to help w/her sissy's hair!! I love it. I wish we lived closer and I could learn to do that with Nia's hair. :) Have a great Thanksgiving!!
This is so great! Love it! what a sweetheart.
Did she come from Haiti with some of the knowledge that she needs to already be in 5th grade? i mean like math knowledge, and whatever else they do? history? or....science stuff? i'm curious how a child (any child) pops right into a USA grade where they are building on knowledge they already have....or do they have her doing other stuff for ESL? wow...5th grade!
quick question 4 u - on the twists. I did 1/2 of Nia's hair this mornin' b/c i got tired, she wont sit more than 2 min and asks 150 questions about 'can i have/do this'. So I did 1/2 and did the back poofy - i like that.
How do you 'keep' the twists in? Nia's hair is pretty short...um, like REALLY short. All I did was put conditioner, lil mousse and then some slimy oil stuff my friend bought me (she bought all of it actually). It seemed to stay. just curious if it will stay longer than a few days, if I will need to redo it, ect ect. gardiner94 (at) aim (dot) com
