Oy, I Overdid It - Recovering from Surgery - Blog Entry08 Mar 2007 07:48 AM I'm working on it. I'm too impatient to get back to being in good health, just sitting around and watching television or reading all day -- it sounds nice on paper or for a day of rest now and again, but I'm pretty bad about it.

My daughter gets a homework packet every week from her kindergarten class and she does it, by herself and sometimes, she complains that it's hard and I ask her to tell me what parts of it are hard and then she admits -- part of it is she doesn't want to have to sit and do the work.

St. Patrick's Day - How to Trap a Leprechaun - Blog Entry02 Mar 2007 07:36 PM This sounds like a neat idea! I may have to see what my husband can come up with for our daughter and what she might come up with -- I have to admit, I'm not that good at the mechanical tricks. Start A Family Tradition: Community Service - Blog Entry02 Mar 2007 03:42 PM I've written about this somewhere before, not sure if it was here or in the forums, but my daughter and I do a lot of different community service type projects together from donating books, to getting Christmas Angels at the holidays to raising money from the school and donating clothing and more.
