Today, in our house, a boy is celebrating his 7th birthday. We will be surrounded by friends and family, while I simultaneously stare at a kid that is growing up before my eyes. Oh, and we’ll have cake and ice cream. Lots of ice cream.
I hope you find something to celebrate today. Actually, the fact that you lived to see another day is reason enough to celebrate, don’t you think? Go on … let yourself eat cake! Continue reading “Project 366: Day 14”
Are you superstitious? Check your calendars … today is Friday the 13th.
My Dad was born on May 13th, which meant celebrating his birthday on the dreaded Friday 13th from time to time. Thankfully, no one was ever hurt, injured or chased by an ax or a knife wielding guy in a mask.
To me, Friday the 13th is just another day on the calendar year. However, if you are feeling a little nervous and anxious today, I have good news. Rocket Dog is alert and ready to tackle any Friday the 13th trickery. Rocket Dog will keep you safe. Continue reading “Project 366: Day 13”
During the Christmas break, my son spent time pulling together information about sea urchins. Yesterday, he presented his research report to his fellow classmates. I don’t remember doing a research report in first grade, unless you count scoping the house for something interesting to bring for ‘Show and Tell’.
Camera in tow, I went to see/hear my son give his presentation. How very cool to watch him stand in front of his class. He did a great job. Plus, he never blushed or showed signs of nervousness. (He does not get his public speaking confidence from me, that’s for certain!)
When all is said and done, I plan on printing out all 366 pictures as a reminder of the year 2012. I did not intend to share any pictures from my son’s presentation with the blogosphere; however, when I look back at Project 366 and the year 2012, I want to remember my son’s first classroom presentation.
