I will keep you and yours ...So sorry for your loss. I will keep you and yours in my prayers - as always. <br /><br />What happened to school is the tests. There is so much more information to learn and they *need* to know it so much sooner. (Not.) In Opp, k-gardeners no longer have time for naps. All that *fun* stuff happens at head start. K is for real school. <br /><br />You are not a bad mother because NB has cavities. Some dentists will say there is genetics involved and some will just blame you. We have run the gamut from years of perfect check-ups and a couple with spacers and fillings all over the place. For me, given that we have done pretty similar things about eating and brushing habits for all 7 of them, I'm inclined to think that perhaps not everything was preventable.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02344439322245216340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420123617513988962.post-59410113858881645002010-11-22T13:59:24.499-08:002010-11-22T13:59:24.499-08:00You're SO right - we NEED those paper turkeys!...You're SO right - we NEED those paper turkeys! You gave me a huge smile, bringing back those fun memories. Art is part of an enjoyable childhood. <br /><br />I agree with you - schools are more prone to let art go by the wayside. It's all about stern education and not enough about fun. Kids are growing up too quickly and missing out on the joy, which is sad.<br /><br />I'm glad you did the paper turkey with her - Kudos to you for making those special memories :)Aletahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05605214202876973830noreply@blogger.com
