Yesterday was the Holiday Sing-along at my daughter’s school. I dropped her at the usual time then returned home to get myself and my son ready to go to see the show. We returned to school, late as usual. Parking [...]

A quick (and 100% true) story:
My daughter made a beautiful piece of art in school yesterday (yes, I know…every kid makes 'beautiful' art in preschool). It was one of those cool art projects that I can remember doing and being excited about when I was in preschool 522 years ago. Remember these: you would [...]

A brief peek into a conversation this morning:

GAH! Why, for the love of all that is good in the world, doesn’t my son have a regular sleeping pattern?
Some days he will sleep until 7:30. Some days he wakes at 6:15. Some days he sleeps until 8:00 (but never on the mornings I get to sleep in). Some nights he [...]
