Like sound through water


Juergen's flight was delayed a few hours. This made his day very long. He got to the hotel at 2am. He isn't staying at the nice hotel once booked. They had a reservation problem, so now they are at some not so interesting place (sad). I am pretty sure Juergen will not post photos for a day or two. He has some interesting observations on India, but I'll leave that to him to write.
I managed to get the kids to bed early last night. They all slept well. I made them a good, hot breakfast. They even had an extra 20 minutes to play before school. I hope the rest of the day (week) goes as well! I should be cleaning my house today; instead I'm reading a book about Auditory processing Disorder (APD) called "Like sound through water". I'm convinced Jessica, Thomas, and Philip all have a degree of APD. Karen Foli's story is so much like my own story. I can not help but notice how much people love their children, and feel so helpless when something is wrong (for what ever reason). It does not mater if your child has a physical, emotional, social or developmental problem. If they hurt, you hurt! We all want our children to be safe, healthy, and happy. I pray God gives me wisdom to help all my kids do well.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo
