FOR TODAY Monday, October 25, 2010 … Outside my window… it is occasionally spitting rain, but is a little warmer. I am thinking… about trick-or-treat costumes. I am thankful for… the children’s gym class and make-up lessons. And the end of soccer season. From the learning rooms… quiet today. Make-up gym and some errands. From…
This is the best first week back after being gone that we’ve had. We had some arguing and Monday was tough, but Tuesday was a great day! Memory Work: We actually only did Circle Time on Monday and Tuesday this week. Need to do a better job of doing CT before gym class on Wednesday….
FOR TODAY Monday, October 18, 2010… Outside my window… cold and grey. The dogs are playing in the yard. I am thinking… about the coming week. I am thankful for… our fall break.

FOR TODAY Monday, October 11, 2010… Outside my window…it is cooler and a little cloudy but nice. I am thinking… 80+ degrees is too hot in Ohio in October. I am thankful for… M-girl who turns 6 this week. She’s wonderful, smart, fun, helpful, beautiful, sweet, generous, funny … From the learning rooms… We’re having…
