Immutable Mirror – Sneezy Knees
https://bkitchen28.wordpress.com/2015/03/13/immutable-mirror
March 13, 2015. Bull; ( 6 Comments. Like a parental creep, I just watched my eleven year old run down the block. By most standards, this wouldn’t be considered strange. What. Too suspiciously. The blue minivan that drove. A little too slowly. According to my wary, worry wart standards. As I closed the front door with a sigh, I wondered how the hell my parents did it.

Childhood Hangout | For the Love of Teaching...
https://sgeijer.wordpress.com/2015/03/17/childhood-hangout
For the Love of Teaching…. March 17, 2015. Eight blocks are all that stood between me and my favorite childhood hangout. A hangout that opened my eyes to so many possibilities and gave me a brief reprieve from my daily life… A hangout that allowed me to stuff my backpack to the brim with adventures and characters that could transport me to millions of other places. 8211; I met Marie-Antoinette and her perpetual need to live a life of grandeur. 8211; Made new friends in castles full of witches and wizards.

Why I Sing Loudly at Whole Foods. She used to sing musical theater. In the grocery store, said Scott, when we and the other people in our foster parent training were talking about what sort of strategies we might use to address public tantrums. Don’t you remember that? Oh yeah, I did, didn’t I? How could I have possibly forgotten about the singing? That was the best idea I ever had! Extreme problems sometimes demand extreme measures. Sometimes, if I could catch the tantrum while the wave was just startin...
