Nine of the Funniest Letters Forged by Kids
September 1st is World Letter Writing Day. You know I keep up on all of these vitally important holidays. Since it is also Back to School time in most areas I decided to join the two and share some of the funniest letters forged by kids for our Friday Frivolity Host Letter Writing theme. Technically […]

Get your Geek On with “Sum” Math Puns plus Friday Frivolity
I love a good pun, and have quite an extensive collection of punny memes. There were so many ways I could pare down my collection to share with you for the Friday Frivolity Host theme of “puns”. Since school starts in 6 days, and I am a geek at heart, I decided on a Back […]
Cheap and Easy Ways to Commemorate the School Years
Super Moms have been pinning and planning since their child’s birth for ways to mark their child’s passage through school. Some plans are quite elaborate and expensive. Me? not so much. Truthfully, his first day of preschool I didn’t even think to take a picture before school. Sorry, kid! I wish someone had given me […]

The result: A mutant ninja turtle pizza chef complete with a double extra large pepperoni and mutagen pizza. Turkey? I don’t see a turkey? oooh! Pizza…. He did all of the work except for […]

The hardest and most important part of parenting
Being a parent can be downright unpleasant at times. From pregnancy and child birth, to diaper changes and sleepless nights, to cleaning up vomit and other gross messes. But for me, the most unpleasant is having to punish my son. I guess I should say “give him negative consequences for his behavior”. We don’t […]
We are lucky to have a child in Special Education
I feel a little sorry for parents with “normal” kids. They don’t get to go through all of the surveys and tests and meetings to learn all about their child’s strengths and weaknesses in the academic environment. At best they get a few minutes during conferences to speak one on one with the teacher. Meanwhile, […]
Happy Apple Day!
I don’t know if other schools party like we do at ours. At least in Kindergarten and 1st grade there is a themed party every month where the students do educational activities and, like any good party, eat. September is Apple Day, October is Spiders and Pumpkins, November is Thankful, Gingerbread Day in December, etc. […]
