Art Show

Yesterday evening my family attended an art show at ASU for the Washington School District. The art that was displayed was from grades K-8th.

My 13 year old grandson was one of the students whose art was selected to be displayed. He was surprised to find out that he would be participating in this event. He wasn't aware that as he turned in his art assignments his teacher was submitting them for the show. It was a nice surprise for each of us. Congratulations Brad!

Every March Washington School District celebrates Youth Art Month with a student art show. I think it's great that our young artist are being recognized for their talent. 

Congratulations to my grandson for his awesome art!

How's Your Sleep

OMG Facts tweeted yesterday that you can survive days without eating but will live 11 days from not sleeping.  http://www.omg-facts.com/  I'm teetering on being sleep deprived at the moment. My 2 year old granddaughter has been staying the night and she won't sleep in her room.  She is a 2 year old that is the height of most 4 year olds, and she sleeps horizontally.

They knew that they were always welcome in my bed, so naturally the same rule goes for the grandkids. It's just this is the first time h...
I left early this morning to get some shopping done, and I have to be honest - not ready to be sold on Christmas  I know it's the way retail works - I put many years into that industry, but I truly hate how overly commercialized Christmas is. They brainwash people and kids into thinking they have to have the newest and best of everything, and most people buy into the lie.  But what about the kids that their parents can't fall into the trap because financially they just can't do it. Are they made fun of or shunned by their peers because they don't have the newest clothes, gadgets, or toys?  Do they feel inferior or not worthy enough to receive - according to the advertisers you have to have it. It's not fair or right and I hate it!                                                               I think we all need to ...
