I Know What I Did This Summer or #Backtoschool Needs to Get Here Quick!
Another lengthy comment that I am turning in to a blog post!! You would think that since my children are 14, 11, and 7 that this summer would have been a breeze. Nope. It was an utter nightmare. Thank goodness my teacher/administrator husband was off for part of June and all of July.... »
#BlogHer Recap with Photos
So it seems a little funny to be writing an update post so long after everyone else, but… I finally uploaded photos to Facebook from BlogHer. A blog post is in order.

Writing Tips for 1st Graders Who Hate to Write
I suffer from terrible writer’s block on this blog. I go for a few days without writing. I have no such problems when I leave a comment. I am positively overflowing with ideas. It is as though the blog post is a writing prompt. My 1st grader may or may not have writer’s block. He... »

#Yoursphere Is FREE and a Sign Up Code YSMC-0051
I wrote about our homework struggles. While most of the country’s kids are skipping out of school, our county’s kids are “still going and going” — like the Energizer Bunny. I complained about how much time we spend at volleyball tournaments. I even wrote letters to my kids. The post I need to write... »
The Homework Struggle
When my oldest was a kindergartener, homework was a snap. My only issues involved what to do with my youngest. I bought a workbook for the youngest. Both girls “worked” together as I made dinner or cleaned the kitchen. My oldest would drag her feet on her writing homework, but she knew that she... »
Bing Helps Teachers Help Kids (A Review)
Education is important in our house. While it is true that my parents were quite hands off about my education, I picked up the education vibe from their actions. My father left school at 16 to become a draftsman. After working and going to school at night for 7 years, he received his bachelor’s... »
