Things I'm enjoying

Something to eat

Something to play with

A blog to read

Songs to hear

A book for fun

A book for getting smarter

A surprising editorial

And a video that never fails to make Joey and me happy

Lately, we have...

 Worn the traditional Fiesta head gear.

 Watched for horses at the Battle of Flowers parade.

 Flown a kite (with great joy and running).

 Patted a most awesome lizard

 who was caught in our garden netting and then set him free.

 Watched the bean plants start to climb.

 Hunted for eggs in work gloves like Daddy's.
(The easter bunny worked overtime to find those.)

 Hunted for eggs again with our friends.

 Rode a carousel.

 Climbed a giant net.

And played in water to cope with the start of the summer heat.

I love this time of year even though it means lots of grading for both of us and late night writing for me. Almost summer.

Family Values

After a day in which I find this comic more and more appropriate, 

I thought I'd share this report that is closely related to some of what I do

Failing its Families

sort of.
