Hello, I'm back. Things are going good at the Burk home. I'm still commuting each Friday from Washington. My class is going pretty good. We were on television (CSPAN) earlier today attending a terrorism briefing at GWU. It was pretty interesting seeing some guys shaping our policy at a big level talk to students and reporters. Audrey had tubes placed in her ears about two weeks ago. She is doing fairly well, but she did get an infection in her left ear after the procedure. She actually sat up on her own without assistance for about 20 seconds this past Saturday. This may seem like no big deal, but it's pretty huge for our little girl considering everything she has gone through.

I'm attaching some pictures of her doing this, but I didn't get the good shots when she was midline and looking at her mommy. Austin is a total mess. He is crawling around everywhere and trying to pull himself up so it's all over but the crying............HONDO is mobile. Macy is enjoying first grade and Shannon is juggling a thousand things each day holding down the house.

I got to spend some time with my cousins, Lisa and Matthew last week. We had a great time so I plan on hanging out with Lisa and Scott more over the next couple of months. I'm still trying to link up with my other cousin Terry who lives in the Washington area. That's about it for now.......time to go to sleep.

JB
