**WEEKEND UPDATE**The Wizard of OZ play at the school was a smashing hit and we are all very glad we made it out alive! It was very stressful on the children and teachers/helpers to learn the parts and get it all together. I am so very proud of the awesome job they did! I also heard the school {kids} got some press this morning on the radio. Jennifer Sparks from KHITS was there this weekend

Yes, even I have a breaking point. At some point yesterday I lost a CC that had about $500.00 on it. I have traced my steps over and over again. I have asked the guys at QT and given them my number to call if they find it. I tore the house and the car apart.Finally I just sat down and cried. I cried, not only because I lost the card, but because I have been so busy and I can not keep up with

Are you ever just grateful for the sage advice of your elders?? I know that I most certainly am! I am eternally grateful for my student counselor at Forest Park. Here is my day; I drove out to school, in Fenton to take my test and then drove all the way to Forest Park College {which is by the Zoo} to talk to my counselor. We had a nice long, heart to heart where I informed him on my

Now for the downers of the weekAt work this morning I find out that there is a boy that ran away from home. One I am rather close to and care about very much. He is so very young, still in elementary school.While I was in talking to the principal I over heard that the grandmother said, “he did this before so I am just going to the doctor and I will worry about it later”. WTF??!! How ignorant is
