Welcome 2008!

For 2008 my goal is to actually write in this blog and not just insert my favorite pictures...I can't imagine anyone actually wanting to read about what I'm up to...but at least it's a nice way to keep a journal~

Window Artwork

I had to get a picture of the kids' Christmas artwork in the window by our front door.

It was mostly from M&S...preschool fun! G thought it was strange that we had a menorah in our window. I thought it was cool!

R Makes Dinner by Himself!

For his Life Skills class, R had to make an entire dinner by himself. He had to shop for it, cook it, and clean it up. He also had to calculate how much it cost to make per serving. For Chicken Divan, rice and salad, it cost $2.09 a serving for 8 servings. It makes you realize how expensive fast food is! R loved doing this...he likes to help in the kitchen.

His Life Skills class is actually very good. They learn about random life skills -- how to deal with peer pressure, making a budget, typing, community service...it's been good for him.
