Today I got to substitute in Primary. It was awesome. Hear are some of my favorite things and as Dave Barry would say, I swear I am not making this up: Watching Ethan spell out his name on the chair label his teacher made for him Having Ethan...

June 21, 2007
...were yesterday, but they're over, and today, blessedly, was a new and very wonderful day. There's no point in reliving the series of unfortunate events, but I have hope that there will be mending and healing. Though I'm not going to share the gory...
The End of an Era
June 19, 2007
Tonight, Evan "graduated" from 5th grade. Tomorrow marks the last day of my 14th consecutive year at Bollman Bridge Elementary School. I find myself quite emotional at the thought. I have been breaking into unexpected bouts of tears all year as folks...
Friday and Saturday
June 17, 2007
I enjoyed the last of the pleasant weather before we get blasted this week. Friday was a very fun day for everyone. I had lovely company during the afternoon while Corinne's boys and then later Corinne and Sheely were at my home. Xavey and I blew bubbles...

Letters from Jeff
June 7, 2007
We heard from Jeff this week. No new photos, but lots of good news. He is doing very well and loves the experiences he is having. He seems untroubled by homesickness, and is handling the day-to-day challenges he is having quite well. He had to go...
Johnathan's Week
June 3, 2007
This week I saw my second son graduate. It was not old hat, as some moms told me it would be. It was tender and exhilerating and happy and everything else, just like Jeff's was. Johnathan is so different from Jeff, and I rejoice in that. Because...
