Maddie Rue Hot News Thursday, August 28, 2008 Madelyn 5 Years and 5 Months She starts first grade next week. I can hardly believe it. We went yesterday and checked out her classroom and met her teacher. Madelyn wasn't too excited before we went about going back to school, but she is counting down the days now. We have been trying to pack in a lot of summer activities since school is getting ready to start. We have been taking lots lof walks, swimming, hanging out at the lake, riding bikes and much more. This has been a great summer for our family and we are looking forward to seeing what the rest of the year has in store for us.   Maverick 3 Years and 2 Months What a fun little man we have! He continues to make us laugh each and every day. We wonder where he comes up with half the stuff he does and says. Maverick is looking forward to school starting in a couple weeks and getting to meet new friends and new teachers. Maverick was so proud of himself on Sunday because he was able to move up to "Big Boy" church. We have been holding out waiting for him to potty train...he is about 80%. I figured this might be a great motivation for him to complete the task at hand. Maverick has so much of his dad in him, he is strong willed, has a mind of his own, but is also the star of the show! I look forward to this year and all the great times we will have as a family.   Contact Information Norman Family PO BOX 114 Washington, IL 61571 dnorman@dealerboss.com maddierue@gmail.com
