Although the kids still have 10 weeks of school left, I have started thinking about grading presents. I know for a fact my daughter will grade as all three of her report cards that have come home have been straight A’s. My son on the other hand is borderline so if he grades, I really [...]

Finally the time has come that the kids have been so patiently waiting for. It’s a long weekend here in Canada. The kids get to have five days off from school and are pretty happy for this extra time off. My son has a major project due the day he gets back to school so [...]
I can’t believe how quickly time has flown this past school year. Three months from today both the kids will be out of school for their summer break. So far their both doing pretty good so I don’t expect any surprises when the school year does end up winding down. Then they will have the [...]
I love my kids but my youngest son is starting to get on my last nerve. He’s never been a real fan of school and it seems like lately he tries everything to get out of going. He is only in grade 7 so of course I force him to go, but it’s a fight [...]

Sending these two kids back to school is going to cost me. On Saturday my husband and I went out school supply shopping, spent over $75.00 and aren’t even done yet. This doesn’t even include the school clothes that we will have to buy. Thankfully one of my friends has a son that outgrows his [...]
