Oliver

Keeping on keeping on.  We should receive his report for November tomorrow.  His senior therapist was really excited about the progress he's made on the VB-MAPP, so I'm looking forward to seeing the data.

Jane

Talking, talking, talking.  She's still trying to pick out letters, so we'll keep up with Starfall and see what happens.

Peter

Will be six months old in less than two weeks and that is completely impossible because it has not been half a year since that kid was born!

The only thing left to do is hang our purple and pink lights in the windows.  And play the heck out of this album.  Good Advent to you!
