End of school year, yay?

Well, it's that time of the school year. The end. This is somehow when I get my most inspiration for the NEXT year. Probably because it becomes clear which goals were met, which ones weren't, which things we can drop, etc. My newest idea is that NEXT year I am going to give my kids about a six week break during January and February. We nearly always spend that time sick anyway, and in my experience, we have to catch up so much afterward, that it just seems like a good idea.

Blog? I have one?

Who knew? Did you? No? I also either didn't remember such a thing. But hey, now that I do remember, I will try to toss some interesting things out here into internet-land for those who might ever read it.

Like, for example, did you know that my six-year-old son is a sleepwalker? Really. He has been for, well, probably his whole life, but it's hard to say because of the time in the crib. The kid just came into my room about five minutes ago, put his hands up against my bedroom wall, "frisk" style, and I could see that this was going to result in some type of puddle on my floor. So, even though I could have waited a second to see what was going to happen, I instead guided the child to the bathroom to complete his somewhat intended business. And everything turned out fine.
