Hi again
It's been along time since I posted, but not for lack of interesting DS related items. I just wish I could remember more of them. 3rd grade is proving to be a lot of work; for me as well as for him. The amount of homework he gets is nuts. Pray God they won't be giving him so much more each year ( Read more... ) -
growing up
DS just returned from his first overnight experience at camp: first night away from his father and me ever. Since he is the Most Secretive Child On Earth (TM), I have no idea about anything he did or whether he liked it (and one can't ask, because that triggers, "I hated it" and then he remembers it that he did -forever- but, he did ask on the way ( Read more... ) -

Day school dollars at work
My DS, was recently having a visit with my parents, who were attempting to coax him to go outside and play. He did not want to go outside (it was cold. Sheesh, when I was a kid, you just got tossed out and tough to you, unless it was hailing) and told my mother "I'm like Jacob, a man of the tents ( Read more... ) -
Parental nonsense
My DS is learning to write, and he wants to have some journal entries with me, so we're going to type in a poem, that I thought of and he thought was funny, while we were reading a story today about a stray dog and the people who adopt him.

An excellent summation of Mr. Adorable's last playdate with Goofgirl (with excellent illustrative photo).....
