A Mother Will do Anything for Her Child
This is a true story about what went on in the Talbert Zoo over the past four days. My life as usual was put on hold because of my three-year-old. Saturday night we got home late from visiting my in-laws in Sacramento for the Fourth of July. The next day was pretty typical. We went to mass in the morning as a family, got home, and the kids played outside. Chris left that afternoon to train for his new position in Chicago. After he left, I unpacked from our trip,…

Read MoreA Bitter Sweet Goodbye
Yesterday was the last day of school. For my younger kids it was time to say goodbye to the brand new school which they were excited about attending back in September. For my oldest it was time to say goodbye to the friendships that took her three years to build. I remember the first day of school just like it was yesterday. Back then we had no idea that by June we would be planning on moving. Snowdon Elementary was opening it’s doors for the first time. The building was…

Yesterday was the talent show at Snowdon Elementary School where Kitty, Parrot and Monkey attend. Kitty did a stand up comedy routine that I wrote and she had the whole place laughing. She is a natural on stage and I could tell she was having a lot of fun with it too. I recorded it and uploaded the video to YouTube. I hope you can take the time to watch it and let me know what you think. It is about 6 minutes long. Does she have a potential career…
