We have an official project week at school which constitutes the student's last week of the year. Mine was this past week though. I finished up early with the stuff I had to teach, so I got to come up with a nice project about designing a eco-friendly house. The kids are getting pretty into it - nice to see some interest and motivation for a change.
I also have been working on my first little woodworking project that I would like to go commercial with. The only problem I can see with starting up a business at this point is the noise that the machines will make. Not only could it bother the neighbors, but the 'chamber of commerce' might not allow such a business in a residentially zoned area. Something to figure out next year.
Abigail started actually crawling on her hands and knees yesterday. We thought she might just skip that step and jump straight into walking. Amélie has been making progress too. She is pulling herself up on things and can climb over large pillows now. They are starting to play together much more nicely now, and they miss each other when separated. On our way back from the cottage they cried for a lot of the trip (which hasn't happened before), but as soon as we got them out of their separated car seats and put them together in the crib it was a party of laughs and happiness. I am sure that being together will help when they have to go to daycare in the fall...
