Kids

JT is getting himself tossed out of Primary each Sunday for behavior problems, a few weeks ago I gave him half a granola bar right after Sacrament and sent him to Primary and he did great.  Well fast Sunday came up and the next week I forgot the bar and he got tossed out again.  This week I remembered and the teacher said he was a different child.  Who knew...he was just hungry.  I don't know why they just don't feed all the kids when they get there?  It is 11:15AM and they most likely had breakfast at 7, he is not the only one with behavior problems.  Just an idea.
No time for a bog breakfast because the kids eat at the normal time like everyday about 7AM and also we like to get to church on time so that means done with everything by 9:25AM teeth brushed, shoes, socks, etc.  So breakfast would need to be done by 9AM and they would be starving by then.  Keeping the schedule is important maybe we should have church at 8AM like school.  Then lunch at home at 11:15 solves all the problems.
I think the church as a whole should do this, if Primary is between 11-2 hungry kids grumpy kids, full kids happy kids.  If the mice are a problem then food should be banned from the whole church, we have more food on the floor after Sacrament then the primary room ever did and they at least vacuum the primary room.

Fun Date

I was teaching Kindergarten when I realized the date as I wrote it on the board.  The other teacher in the room announced that she had heard on the news that already 40 plus babies had been born.  A fun date to remember, Cenny and I went shopping after school and picked up flowers for Harlen and took them to the cemetery before returning home.  We didn't want to forget him on Veterans Day.  I hope you had a happy 11/11/11.

Books Read 127 - 131

 I enjoyed all of these books and found something I really liked in each.

Thank You All

CC banquet at the end of the season

Last night was Qatar's cross country banquet and we were assigned to bring a side dish, I made butter potatoes and I forgot how good those are, but as Kristi has said, "Anything with a stick of butter in it has to taste good."  Well they did, I also made a cherry dump cake and off we went at 6 PM, we got home after 10PM.  The coach loves the kids and talked at least 5 minutes about each one and then did a photo montage of each senior for over that time and then talked.  I thought I was going to fall asleep at the table.  I love that my kids like to be involved, but sometimes I don't.  I was still 1500 steps behind 10,000(another post soon)when we got home so I walked on the treadmill and then finally got to go to bed.   I worked kindergarten and will again today, they can tire you out pretty quickly. This morning should be fun with JT and Cenneidigh being grouchy from a lack of sleep.

Love this and I have to agree, Darcy is every literary woman's dream man. Love this book, love this movie.

Six and four are nice round numbers

I'm surprised how much I like 6 and 4, things come in groups of both these numbers or at least in amount divisible by these numbers.  Not much comes in 7's or 5's or divisions of those.  4 muffins or 1/2 a dozen...4 tickets for an event...etc.  Having an odd number of kids really made that difficult, but with Gunnar gone for a bit I really enjoy the numbers 4 and 6 more then ever before.  We do miss number 7 or 5...but oh well everything changes, and he will be back.
