Sugar and Spice and everything nice

In case anybody wanted to know what it's like in a house full of females! You're the best dad ever - and you have so many years of this to come! Wahoo! All right, so I may have helped a little. Okay, I helped a lot. But Jell was totally delighted! She kept telling dad he was SOOO boo-i-ful! And basically it was what he got for being on the phone too long ignoring us. Tee hee. How is he ever going to get homework done around here?
Speaking of, I should probably quickly catch you up on what's going on around here. Today Cooper started his graduate program at Portland State University! He's going to get his Masters of Public Administration, going full time, and hopefully, there will be a perfect, wonderful, not-boring job on the other end just waiting for him (keep your fingers crossed for us, would you?)! If all goes as planned, it should only take about a year and a half (done in Dec 09). In the meantime, he's going to try and juggle also working part time at Wells Fargo (they provide full benefits for family even though he's only part time, and some tuition reimbursement! Yeah Wells Fargo!). I also hope to help us out by selling more paintings (more fingers crossed, unless of course you're running out of fingers, in which case, toes are fine too). And I've just started training as an SAT instructor for Powerscore. Granted I took the SAT a heck of a long time ago, and I have stupid mom brain most the time, but it's good pay, very part time and I really do like teaching, so hopefully it goes well too. First off, though, I'll have to learn how not to talk like a two-year old. Wish us luck!
