1.  I love my kids.  I am passionate about education in all its forms, but with all the issues teachers are having lately about commenting (even positively) about their professional lives, I am trying to keep it at a minimum.  I will say, I love my kids, and I love my profession.

2.  Our house is getting some updates, thanks to my dad and his friend Dale.  We are getting some sort of thing over our deck, which will add value, and shade.  I am most excited about adding hanging baskets, and perhaps getting a chaise lounge chair with foot rest to read a good book out there.  Jeremy is most excited about adding more plants and vines around it.  There are drawings and everything.  It's the little things.

3.  I think my favorite season is the season between summer and fall- those few days when summer is fleeting and fall is in the air but not quite ripe yet.  I'm looking forward to it.  Atlanta got a taste of it last weekend, and we kept the windows open.  Now, it is back in the mid 90s again.

4.  I am going to try to teach my kiddos how to play lacrosse.  (I'm not counting this as talking about them, because it is more so talking about me.)  I'm excited.  I can even link it to AKS because it originated with the Iroquios.

5.  I think I have a fever.
