Soccer, back to school, a moose and a pet door

Joey has been to a couple more soccer practices and is doing very well. He is getting so much better at not being so frustrated when the ball is kicked away from him or he falls down. Joey is a perfectionist and quite hard on himself. He puts 110% effort in everything he likes to do. Joey was out of school this past week on spring break. He told me tonight as he was getting ready for bed that he was excited about going back to school. He said "I love to learn and I like to follow the directions. I don't think other kids like to, but I do." I don't know where on earth he gets this excitement about school from but I'm glad he doesn't hate it.

Evan seems to love the "noggin" channel on tv. He especially gets excited when Moose A. Moose comes on. It is a yellow moose that comes on during commercials. He will laugh and smile at the screen whenever he hears that moose. He also seems to really like the cartoon called "Oswald". Evan has decided to go back to waking up every 2 hours at night. I'm trying to convince him to go back to waking every 3 to 4 hours.

Jonathan installed our cat entrance on our basement door recently. I'm glad we no longer have to leave the door to the basement open all the time. We had to buy the pet door made for dogs since Max would not fit through the little "cat doors". Jonathan is back to working 3rd shift starting tonight. He had been working during the day for the past couple of weeks while training.

I (Andi) have a job interview tomorrow. I doubt it is "the" job I am looking for, but it is the only call I've received so I will at least check it out and make sure. It is for an Office Manager position at EHS mental health support services. I do like working with mental people. I guess I like them because they never pick up on my weirdness since they are much more weird than me.
