Frog Season

Jeanie and the neighbor kids have been busy catching frogs. They spend hours down by the pond getting all wet and muddy. Once they catch as many frogs as they can, they let them go for next time. (My washing machine died. It's nine years old. I'm off to find another!)

I Saw Stars Yesterday

Danny came walking home from the bus stop sporting these shades. He bought them from his classroom store. They have life skills at school. They have jobs they have to do. Some include selling popcorn at lunch or selling carnations during Valentine's week. They earn a "wage". With this "money" they buy stuff from the classroom store. He has come home with some pretty "cool" things!

Danny tries for the Guinness Book of World Records

The other night Danny came up from the shower. Dad started asking him if he even washed up as he was down there for two minutes. I was busy in the kitchen and Dad was busy in the basement. I asked Dad if maybe he just lost track of the time and perhaps Danny was in the shower longer than he realized. Well.......I guess Dad didn't lose track of time. Danny taped this entry into his Guinness Book of World Records. I guess he figured there should be a "fastest shower" entry and he won it!

It must be Spring

because Danny is out shooting baskets again. His Special Olympics basketball is done. I didn't get a Spring newsletter so I'll have to find out when swimming starts. It should be about now.

Oren....Orin Jon

I forgot to ask how to spell his name.....Sara and Jon had a little boy late last night. Oren Jon. He was 6 lbs 13 ounces. Mom and baby are doing fine.
