Passover

Yesterday was Passover. It was pretty cool. For the first time, Sarah read the story of Exodus all by herself. She has a kids bible that she likes to read at night before going to bed and she told us she wanted to read the story at the Seder. I was so proud of her. I cried thinking how my mom and dad would have been so proud to listen to her. It was the greatest feeling to hear my child reading and doing a fabulous job!
We invited Jill and Camereon (he didn't come) Allison, Homer and Ollen, Janet, and Sarah and James (Sarah Glaze and James Borello from school. Russ made the first addition of the Richter Haggadah and led the seder wonderfully. Everyone seemed to enjoy the seder and the meal. Sarah went looking for the afikoma and got 4 gold dollars for it. Micah and Ollen and Camereon each got 1 gold dollar.
On another note, Micah is having trouble with speech. She doesn't speak but usually screams at us and pulls at us to let us know what she wants. We try over and over to get her to repeat sounds but she usually will just smile at us and moves on. I think ECI is helping but am very worried about her speech. She also loves to hit. Everyone is working with her to get her to stop the hitting. I think it is beginning to work but can't be too sure. She still likes to throw her food when she is done and will still hold food in her mouth until it either runs out of her mouth or we scrap it out.
