Up until this year I've been plagued with doubts on and off about starting Franny in kinder when she was 5. (She turned 5 only 2 weeks before school started.) But this year is different. She off to such a great start, she's so engaged and motivated and she feels much more confident. Puts many of my nagging doubts to rest.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Franny can be shy too. I like to say she's shy but she's not reserved. Once she's warmed up to you she'll open up completely.

There's a onesie I've come across that would sadly no longer fit Ryan, with the caption "iPood".
Aeryn has a bib that says iPeed. It was a gift.
My sister and I both have November birthdays - she was redshirted, I was not. Ultimately it seems to have been the right call for both of us.
My kids have June and January birthdays, so it's not something I'll ever have to wrestle with.

Matilda is celebrating her birthday with more sleep.
Emmett, however, had to get up to catch the 6:08 Muni to downtown to catch a 6:40 BART to the East Bay, to grab his bike at the BART station and ride home to drop off his computer, then get back on his bike and ride it to school before 7:40.

Like, there's a review where the person is disgusted by my "potty mouth."
Seriously, this person can go fuck him/herself.

I don't know how writers keep their heads from exploding when someone puts one star on a book because he thought this was a different book or because the postman left the package in the rain.
