Awalkabout's Weblog: Into the big leagues

Thu, 10 Dec 2009 11:26:16 -0500

Since TH was in kindergarten, he's had a nemesis. Ironically, it was the very first person he met at his school, as we had just moved into the district. Idiots that we were, we thought she seemed pretty nice and encouraged TH to engage with her. Of course, he didn't. [...]

All in all we got about 17 inches of snow. We were snowed in the entire day yesterday. What do the kids do when they have a whole day off of school and can not go anywhere? First, they help Dad shovel out while Mom fixes breakfast. Then after breakfast [...]
