We Are Still Alive

Hello there! All is going well with the Reynders family. We are keeping busy with work and school. This semester has been a little more difficult for us. As you probably know, this is David’s first semester at Fresno State. He is in three hard science classes, each with their own lab. He has to spend many hours studying and preparing for his classes. I am taking eighteen units at Fresno City, so I am pretty busy with school work too. Hopefully this is my last semester at Fresno City; I applied to Fresno State University with hopes of attending there in the fall. I hope I get in; Fresno State is cutting the amount of students that they are allowing in next semester, because of all the budget cuts.

Work is going great for both of us. David is still working with the upper grade autistic children and I am working with the children in seventh through ninth grade. We have learned a lot about autism and continue to learn about it each day we go to work. We really enjoy the kids and staff that we work with. These jobs have been great for both of us.

We have plans to attend summer school this summer and to work in the summer autistic program. We hope we can fit both in this summer schedule. We are also looking forward to going to Tom and Megan’s wedding this summer; that will be a lot of fun.
