We had a really good Christmas. We had some nasty weather from about Christmas Eve until the day after Christmas so the driving was a bit nerve wracking to me. Not only did Glen work on Thanksgiving but he also had to work on Christmas Eve and Christmas. We were not very happy about it [...]

Friday was the last day of school for the kids until “next year”…January 4th I believe. Sanura keeps getting a kick out of saying she won’t see her teacher until “next year” I probably couldn’t count on one hand how many times she’s told me that in the last few days. Each time I laugh [...]

We had our meeting at school on Friday to discuss some ideas that I could use at home to encourage communication. I did get some good ideas. One of them is having a picture of each person in the family and showing Adrian the pictures and telling him for example, “Go say ‘Hi’ to Nevaeh” [...]

Lincoln had his 15 month well child check today at the doctor. It went really smoothly. He actually let the doctor pick him up and smiled a little at her.
At Adrian’s 15 month appointment, we mentioned that we thought something was wrong…as far as speech and what not so it feels great to have Lincoln’s [...]

I had parent teacher conferences for both Sanura and Adrian this morning. It went really exactly as I had expected.
Sanura is a very smart girl so I didn’t anticipate that she would have any problems academically. She did well in all subjects. They had a difficult social studies unit, most of the kids in the [...]

Have you ever wished you could turn back time? Not say that stupid thing? Not accidentally cut your finger while cutting things while cooking? Not slipped on the ice? Not hurt someone’s feelings? Not yelled at your kids? Not got in that fender bender? Oh how I’ve wished I could turn back time!
I was talking [...]

Adrian has been known to go ahead and make himself comfortable without too much concern where we are. When he was about 2 years old we were at the movies with the kids. Adrian took his shoes and socks off. Ok, that’s acceptable I guess. Then, he took his pants off…not so acceptable! We laughed [...]
