You know how you feel when you leave the Dentist’s chair every 6 months, that you have a new determination to combat tooth decay… well none of us have been to the Dentist for over a year because I ran out of time, just over a year ago, to sign us up for insurance! I [...]
When Toby and I got home from school, we saw Fiona was crying. We asked her why. She said, “Fall me”, which means in baby talk follow me. She led us up in her room, pointed at her closet and said, “GHOST MAN!” and ran to hide. I didn’t get what she meant. So I [...]
Way to go Scott and Toby! They both were awarded the “Student of the Month for October 2007″ at their school (The Ranches Academy). What fine examples you are to your Sisters.
When the new school year started I enrolled Kristy into helping out with the Accelerated reading program at our local charter school. She was totally unawares, but this program has turned into a beautiful thing for Scott. He’s turning into a bookworm and loves to just sit down with a book and read. It’s basically [...]
I hope you’ve had an enjoyable Christmas and that the New Year will greet you with much success. For us it’s been a family sick time! Kristy got a Sinus infection, Alyson and Toby both got colds with fever and Ian got a sinus infection with infected tonsils too! The bad news is that Fiona [...]

My Cousin, Jonathan, wrote a poem when he was very little entitled "My Wobbly Tooth". I still remember it till this day, not the actual contents but the way at which he expressed his poem to us. "My tooth began to wobble" will always stick with me. Scott lost his 1st tooth over the weekend [...]
