[Originally written June 2013] Greeting from Virginia! Our family is still adjusting to the area. Amanda and Joel seem to have found their place here very quickly and have some amazing friends. I just never expected to really like my kids friends and enjoy having them over. One of the things I love most about them is, they love to involve Justin and Melissa in all the games. As for an update on my little man. Since moving here, he has somehow adopted the name "shorty". Amanda gave him that name, and with Joel growing 4 inches in a year, Justin really does look short. We have Joel at 70 inches and Justin at 43 inches. He loves his big brother Joel. Joel, Melissa, Justin and Geoff are all taking Martial Arts. My boys LOVE it. You should see them at home practicing their forms and sparring. Justin was excited to pass up his dad in rank. He made it to the green belt last week. Justin still has speech delays. We haven't been able to find him a speech thearpist. A new discovery I made about Justin was that he doesn't know how to spit. Geoff and I have been trying to help him. Especially when it comes to brushing his teeth. We gave him some water to try with, and his reply is, "I can't stop it, it goes down my throat to fast". I am homeschooling Justin this year, he is doing well. His reading is improving a lot. He had me worried at the end of last school year.
