My children love technology. Who am I kidding...the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. But in real life you can't sit on your iPod all day and ignore that there are chores and responsibilities for each of us. In real life we have to be responsible.

Do It With Me: Schoolwork Storage Project
Today my oldest daughter, Savannah, had her 5th grade graduation ceremony. It was surreal to think that she won't be going to elementary school anymore. She has a wonderful class of students graduating with her and I just can't believe that she will be starting middle school next year. She's so excited and very ready for this next stage of life.
