    Posted on Wednesday November 18th, 2009 at 07:07 in kids, school

    Posted on Friday September 25th, 2009 at 10:36 in kids, school

    Well it’s not hard to tell that my kids are back in school. Both of them have been coming home with a ton of homework this week. One of the things that my son is supposed to do (he is in grade 4) is to read every night for at least 15 minutes...

    Posted on Friday August 7th, 2009 at 08:11 in kids, school

    And the countdown is on. This morning when I got up my daughter informed me that there was only 31 days left until school starts again and let me tell you all, I couldn’t be happier. This has probably been the longest summer of my life. The ...

  • Less than a week

    Posted on Monday June 15th, 2009 at 07:13 in life, kids, school

    Well the kids are once again on their final stretch of school time. This time next week they will be out of school for the entire summer. So that means I have a lot of work I need to get done before this happens. It’s just to difficult tryin...

  • School year coming to an end

    Posted on Friday May 22nd, 2009 at 07:47 in kids, school

    Posted on Monday March 9th, 2009 at 09:18 in kids, school

  • Stranded

    Posted on Thursday February 26th, 2009 at 07:43 in life, kids, school

    I really hope that neither one of the kids end up calling home sick from school today. The reason for this is because I don’t have a car today. My husband had to take my car this morning due to the fact that he couldn’t get his out of t...

  • Yearbook pictures

    Posted on Tuesday February 17th, 2009 at 05:57 in kids, school

    I really had no idea how many activities the children were involved in this year until they came home from school the other day and were telling me about getting their pictures taken for the school yearbook. Every year the school takes individual ph...

  • Health class

    Posted on Tuesday February 10th, 2009 at 09:28 in health, kids, school

  • Where did the time go?

    Posted on Thursday January 22nd, 2009 at 06:47 in kids, school
