Busy week here as ususal.
Tim- by Friday he seemed to be going off to school better. In talking with his teacher it might just be an issue of the bar being raised a bit. Tim has the worlds worst handwriting. He can write neatly if he chooses..he just doesn't choose. So there is alot of re-writing. Language Arts is normally first thing in the morning. This mom should have put that together sooner. She is the one that used to make herself throw up in 2nd grade cause she didn't want to go to school!
Josh- He is on Day 7 of a two week punishment. For what you may ask? Hmmm...let's just say he was trying to see what he could get past our Net Nanny filter. Thankfully the filter worked...but I sure had an eye opener reading the alert emails. This is a family friendly blog...so I'll leave it at that. Preteen hormones are going to be the death of me. His punishment is no TV, no computer, no after school with friends. He had scouts, basketball practice and a orchestra concert that he went to and today he has a game and Cotillion. So don't feel too sorry for him. However, he will have to listen to the Steelers playoff game tomorrow. That is probably going to to be the hardest part of his entire 2 weeks.
On a happy note...the 6th grade string orchestra had their first concert on Thursday night. Josh is plaing cello this year. They really just starting bowing in late October. Amazing what their orchestra teacher did with them in a few short months. He really enjoys music. I'm glad he got his talent from his Dad.

Wow Marcy, you need to get me on board with this Net Nanny thing. I shudder to think of the day that Jonathan.....anyhow, just wanted to let you know that Jonathan is also going through a "I don't want to go to school phase". I honestly believe that it is because of the long break. He does go through this from time to time however.
Hugs, Wendy
Hey, great pic! I need to know about the Net Nanny thing too. Maybe Keith should do a Sunday tutorial at your house one day for the neighborhood. LOL
Tell Timmy Ben has the worst handwriting too. It seems to be getting better now that he's doing cursive.
