We Can't Forget. I Won't Forget.

Meet Kyle Laman. We share the same family name, but I've never had the pleasure of meeting him. Not yet, anyway.  Kyle is 15 years old, and thank God, he is one of the survivors of the tragic school shooting in Parkland, Florida...

Thinking of Parkland

Since Wednesday, I haven't been able to get Parkland out of my mind.  I keep thinking of the entire community, the students, teachers, parents, the victims, those who survived, and those who didn't...

The Last Day of School

Today has been bittersweet...

On Dressing up at School

Two Halloweens Ago

How do you feel about your child dressing up at school?

Tickle Bus

"Tickle bus, tickle bus!!!" squeals Buddy Roller from the back seat.
Thanks to The Hubs, morning trips to preschool are more entertaining than ever.
I don't know about you, but I'm tickled happy just hearing the excitement in my son's voice every day.
It all started a couple of years ago when The Hubs wanted an amusing, yet educational, way to entertain Buddy Roller while driving him to school.

The Hubs came up with tickle bus...an enjoyable competition to see who could count the most yellow buses on the way to school.
With each bus counted, Buddy Roller could high-five his dad, and The Hubs could tickle his son which would result in infectious laughter.
Not only was this game fun, but Buddy Roller was also learning to count, add and subtract.
Now years later, even I have joined in the game of tickle bus.
We're having fun and creating memories that will, no doubt, last a lifetime.
