So Elliott was technically in 6th grade during the… Continue reading First Day of School 2022

Elliott Turns 11 and Our Blog Becomes Extinct
It seems fitting that our blog would take its place among the dinosaurs the same year Elliott turned 11. If you’ll remember, we started this little bloggy blog when we were pregnant with Elliott, so just over 11 years ago. And 11 years in computer age is like ELEVEN HUNDRED years in human years.

Last Day of School Quarantine Style
We had a fabulous school year. Really, it was just fabulous. And part of why I’m forcing myself to sit down and REMEMBER and reflect upon all of the goodness and loveliness and truth that transpired in the 2019-2020 school year is because I feel like we stumbled across the finish line a bit bloodied,… Continue reading Last Day of School Quarantine Style
