Creativity Needed

Help! Does anyone out there want to take over the wallpaper on my page? I'm ready to move on from the colors I currently have.
Is this anyone's forte?

Literal Reader

The slip of paper showing us what E's primary sacrament meeting part was reads thus:
E: I help my mom to know I love her by drawing her pictures.

E, practicing his part with his dad reads his part:
"E dot dot I help my mom to know I love her by drawing her pictures."

He's such a smarty pants.

Wanted

Anyone living in a two mile radius of my house that is interested in joining a dinner exchange group with three of the most wonderful cooks in all of Laveen?

Deirdre, Jackie and I exchange meals for our families once a week and are looking for a fourth family to include. I know there are some out there who deliver individual meals every night, but the way it has been most convenient for us is to all meet up on Tuesday nights, rotating houses where we meet, and exchange dinners for the rest of the week. Sometimes it's ingredients and a recipe, sometimes the meal is complete and ready to go from the fridge to the oven, whatever is most convenient for the person providing it. Each meal feeds 4 adults. Including sides is optional. And the person whose house we are meeting at provides a 'hot and ready' on that night, meaning the meal is ready to be taken home and eaten that night. It really is a lovely time saver for my family.
We're accepting applications (please include a sample of your most delicious dish) until the position is filled ;) (the applications part is for fun, if you're interested email one of us!)

E's First Report Card

E got his first report card from Pre-K today.

In the comment section his teacher wrote:
"E is an energetic and kind child. An independent learner. Follows direction and enjoys helping others, specially the younger ones. Finds it difficult at times to concentrate on his work and finish it. I am trying to help him by motivating him to stay on task and finish his work."

The grading system is: C = Consistently, I = increasingly, P = Periodically, and S = Seldom
He got an I in:
Chooses appropriate work
Organizes learning activities
Demonstrates concentration
Displays a strong interest in learning and working
Individual work
Group Work
Completes cycle of work
Demonstrates persistence
Demonstrates sense of order
Awareness of and functions within reality
Ability to share

Shows responsibility for own actions

And he got a C in:
Copes with transitions and challenges
Displays confidence
Express feelings and needs
Relates well with peers
Joins in discussions
Participates and works appropriately in a group
Shows respect fo others and environment

No P's or S's!

Way to go E Boy!

My happy baby has turned in to the above picture. I took his pacifier away for good just about a month ago and my sunshine has disappeared.

Sigh....
