This year, David seems to be struggling more this year than any other…his grades just seem to be in the tank. Last year was As and Bs…this year it’s Cs and Ds and one F! I’m stroking out trying to figure out what to do to help him.
Today I receive his progress report and at [...]

Where to start? Hmmm.
So our house is physically put together, the walk-through was done on Friday, and I have house keys…four to be exact. Four separate house keys; a different one for each doorknob lock and each deadbolt. When a “model” house is built for a showroom, they just slap knobs and deadbolts on and [...]

Tough episode of Oprah today, but I’m thankful I saw it (cried through it, actually).
Oprah started out the episode talking with two Mother’s whose middle school aged kids had killed themselves as a result of being bullied.
As the parent of a child who has been picked on and taunted, it was so very scary to [...]

David’s Spring Concert was last night. This is video of the choir singing his and my favorite song, “Sing with Jubilation” by Jerry Estes.
The choir sang a total of 8 songs with one being a “Suite” of four songs called “Four Seasons” – no relation to Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons”. Then the [...]

Today was the annual “Take Someone Special to School” day the PTA puts on. This year, since Daddy is in a new job, he couldn’t go like he normally does. So David invited Mimi and Gigi.
Mimi was able to come, even with the early hour. Breakfast in the Multi-Purpose Room started at 7:30 and was [...]

“WARNING, Will Robinson, WARNING!! DANGER!! DANGER!!”
Rant ahead…whining, complaining, kavetching rant ahead.
I think I’ve mentioned before that my son’s school really doesn’t have much in the way of parking. Primarily it’s street parking along the perimeter of the school. This year, it seems, that there are more, a record number, of parents driving their kids to [...]

I went to school this afternoon to get head shots of the kids in David’s class. After I had completed taking the pictures, I was heading to the reading literacy classroom to get pics of the three kids that were not in class at that time.
As I walked across the courtyard I saw one [...]

That was the name of the workshop I went to in Laguna Beach.
But first, let me say, Laguna Beach ain’t all it was cracked up to be! Can you say “CROWDED”? I knew you could. I don’t ever recall seeing traffic like that! And the Hotel? Ugh! $200/night for a [...]
