lunch bags and stuff

lunch bags and stuff

For Christmas Aislynn got a really nice lunch bag that she had been wanting for a long time. You know the kind.  They have zippers and pockets and the fancy matching thermos.  For months she would point it out whenever we were in Target and would say, “Mom…I really, really want this bag for my […]

reading woes

Aislynn,  our #7,  started the second grade this year.  She is homeschooling just like she did last year.  I enjoy teaching Aislynn because she is always eager to do her work and never complains.  By the end of first grade, however, she wasn’t reading.  She struggled with simple words like “cat” and “big” and “they” […]

Kung Fu Kids

August 12, 2011

Kung Fu Kids

Andrew, Aislynn and A.J. are really enjoying their Kung Fu class. We are very new to the whole martial arts scene, and I must admit that I am very impressed with it so far.   These three kids of mine are saying things like, “Yes, mam”  and  “No, sir”  (which is required in class)  and it has carried […]

the yoga girl

Each morning when the children get to school, they line up with their class and have to sit on the black top while the morning announcements are read.  Some kids listen attentively, and some kids just sort of zone out, like Aislynn is doing here… and then some kids will make use of this down […]

I’m a slacker

I almost didn’t publish this post.  I didn’t want to admit that I’m a slacker mom.  But the truth is … I am. Sometimes I completely slack on things.  Even things of importance.  Like making dentist appointments for the kids. Aislynn had her first visit to the dentist not too long ago.  At the age of […]

making deposits

A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o’clock, with his hair fashionably combed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary.    After  many hours of waiting patiently […]
