talent show trio

The school talent show this year was somewhat hijacked by the Dueck kids. Mae and her good friend Lauren began planning a gymnastics routine almost before Christmas brake had ended, James decided to perform an accordion song and play a heart-and-soul duet with porter, and in addition to porter also playing a piano song of his own, it turned out he (and classmate Kaitlin) would be the MCs for the evening.

They all did a great job. Unfortunately my iPhone camera was malfunctioning and Kevin was late arriving so pictures are fairly limited.

Here are a couple, though, of porter doing a great job conducting the show ...






And here's a couple of the waiting performers (James on the far left in a blue-gray shirt, and Mae and friend at front in pink and black).






Great job, guys! I'm proud of you for practicing hard (mostly;), and getting up in front of an audience even though it can be a little scary!

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
