I am so proud of Trevor, he did such a good job in the Christmas program yesterday. I was amazed at how many parents did not show up though. I feel so bad for the kids whose parents did not show up, I understand some parents work or have things that come up and they are not able to attend but what about the parents who just don't show up? That just really irritates me because I was one of those kids. My parents did come to some things but other things it seemed like they had one excuse or another for why they couldn't come. We have always made every attempt to attend out children's activities and events, even if only one of us could be there, because I don't want my children to feel like we don't care about them or that there stuff is not important to us.
I don't mean to sound so mean spirited, especially at what should be such a happy time of the year, but I guess the events of last week along with an "incident" at my own kids school this week has me a little on edge.
On a happier note, the next few days will be pretty busy for me with all the last minute details of getting ready for Christmas. I have to clean the house, do some last minute shopping, deliver the fruit baskets Trevor's boy scout troop is selling and assembling, and do some baking. I want to get a gingerbread house kit to make with the kids, they always look so nice but I've never made one before so I hope they aren't too difficult. Wish me luck!
