Thanks to getting two boys to bed early (and not falling asleep the whole night with one of them) I had a chance to play around with some my pictures in Photoshop. Makes me want to shoot in raw and spend hours in front of the computer to “fix” my photos. Here are some edited…

Coming out of his shell…
Apparently Yago is emerging from his shell. It was just until a few days ago that I would walk around the corner and peek into his classroom only to find him sitting on his lunch box behind the door. He would be waiting. If he had eaten lunch earlier than usual that day, he’d even have a…
Give me one good reason, please.
If you had been a fly in our car on the way to school Wednesday, you would have overheard this conversation. Yago: Mom, I don’t want to go to Montessori; not today. (This is the way we start every conversation on the way to school.) Mom: Silence (I always pretend that I didn’t hear or…
School Daze
As I drive away from drop-off, I watch as Yago slowly walks with his teacher to the playground. He stands around as if in a daze, as he regains his courage to continue. He looks back to see if my car is still in sight. The traffic on Granny White keeps me from turning out…
School debriefing
When I went to pick Yago up from school, I was just a little bit early. He had just sat down to eat lunch. I was invited by his teachers to have a seat at his table while he ate. Some kids were sitting one to a table and others two to a table. Everyone…
What a difference a day made!
Yago had a great day today! He only cried 15 minutes and then wanted to “stay and play” rather than come home with me. His teacher said, “Yago is really coming out of his shell.” I wanted to tell her that sometimes I wished he’d stay in his shell… ;) He wants to go back…
Crazy Day
I packed up the kids today and before heading out the door, made an appointment for Yago to get his head checked out. We found a sore on his head that looked a little oozie (not sure when or how he hurt it and it was circular so I wanted to rule out ringworm since…
Mixed emotions…
I found out yesterday that Yago will be able to start part time (Tues/Thurs) at the Gardner School in Cool Springs on November 4. This is great! I REALLY hope that he doesn’t have a hard time adapting. He LOVES going to Grandma’s house (who wouldn’t?!). The timing couldn’t be any better considering the fact…
