I just got back from an in-service and then PD hours, so I am a little warped. But, decided to check my blog for comments, and my spirits were lifted when I saw I got a comment from my oldest, dearest, and best friend, Julie. So, thank you. So, there was something interesting I learned today. Of course, the exception is our own children, because we spend the time with them already. If you want to make a personal connection you need to follow the 2 X 10 rule. Spend 2 minutes a day for 10 days with a child just talking. I have seen a lot of children whose parents have not been able to spend time with them, due to many reasons, and perhaps you see those children. I encourage you to reach out to them.

On the home front- Jason passed his hazmat test today. So, he can now drive a propane truck. (Watch out everyone! Ha!) We laugh that our lives are becoming "King of the Hill" like. At least it is not turning into a soap opera! Jason had to take care of the kids this afternoon, so when I got home I found McDonald's on the table! I chuckled to myself because we went there last night when Jason was at work. No complaints from the girls though! I am thinking about putting Sarah into dance. Last night, Dancing with the Stars were on, and Sarah was trying to imitate the moves she saw on the TV. So, who knows? She was as graceful as a 4 year old could be!
