So the Grant household has been ridiculously busy of late. The upstairs bath is being remodeled, potty training is going on, the demands of the first grade....its just crazy! Things are getting less busy though. The bathroom is -almost- finished, just a touch more paint and a shower door to install. The potty training, well, that's hit or miss...literally. As for the first grade, well, he's excelling with his grades, but it's a struggle to get him to do homework!
Okay, now since we have summed up the top events, onto the post title. Scott stole an idea from a blog I was reading and thought was cool. It's called the 3 question game. Every night when Mat goes to bed, Scott allows Mat to ask 3 questions. Any 3 questions. I was curious as to how this would work, but it is truly amazing at the questions you see kids ask. Mat, who is 6, asks some of the most in depth and surprising questions regarding several topics. He's asked about life and death, bugs, animals, how things are made, space, science, evolution, religion...And yes, Mat has asked questions that Scott nor I know the answer to. For those? We are very thankful that we have the Intarweb on our phones:) I can't wait til Tempe is old enough to compose questions other than, 'where did it go!?'

The yearly update!
Well it's that time again to post my yearly post. I started a new blog for my own personal musings. I wanted to keep that off of the family postings, but I figured I'd put a post in here about it:)
Anyway, Mat is doing VERY well in school. 'A' honor roll, off the charts in reading, great in math. (Not so good in handwriting, but meh. Neither am I:) ) Tempe is talking in sentences and learning her colors and letters. Scott is working at AMIG now with me. He works as a liaison essentially between the Cincinnati office and the regional/global offices as it relates to IT changes.
Other than that, we're going to be spending our tax return on fixing our upstairs bathroom. We wanted to remodel it within the next few years, but a water runoff issue is causing us to do it sooner.
Well, onward to cleaning up the house. See you in a year!
