Gone Fishin'

So, this past saturday we took the kids to little river to go fishing. We thought it would be fun and it was. Mikyla caught a baby bass that we returned soon after catching. Zoe thought the worms were gross.(they were) Reece likes the idea of fishing but gets bored with the whole waiting thing. Can't say I blame him. We did get some good pictures of the kids though!

Twilight

Have you read this book??? The only logical answer is YES!!
I would love to tell you about it but every word I can think of is inadequate.
There are no words to describe the wonder of this book. And Edward, what do you say about Edward. There again all words are inadequate to describe this wonder as well.
READ THE BOOK!!! Lose yourself in this wonderful fantasy world then come back and tell me what you think of twilight. Well if you can find the words.

Are you kidding me???

Okay, so I haven't yet decided who I will vote for in the November election since the candidate that I liked the most dropped out of the presidential race. I'm not to keen on any of the others so far but, I also haven't watched any recent debates.(I try but for the most part they bore me)

Here's the problem, today they had kids vote at school. Which is a great way to teach kids about the voting process.But at what point do teachers cross the line?
Mikylas' teacher told her class that Barack Obama is a racist.My reply was of course,are you kidding me?? She really said that to the entire class?
I'll be the first to say I know nothing about Barack Obama and he may or may not be racist however I will say that is a strong accusation to make to a classroom full of 5th graders. (Mikyla voted for Hilary Clinton after being given this information from her teacher)
I thought teachers were to teach our children fact not opinion. And no i'm not saying teachers are not entitled to an opinion but I think this opinion should have stayed out of the classroom.

Although it did give me the perfect opportunity to teach my children the importance of not basing their opinions off the opinions of others.That in making decisions they should always form their own opinions by learning about the subject or person for themselves.
