I thought maybe it had to do with missing school on Thanksgiving, and trying not to mess with the kids' routine too much in the same month. I dunno...Amy BGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798479131474759065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850994802687070206.post-60323836594188556222010-11-15T22:10:23.179-05:002010-11-15T22:10:23.179-05:00Anne - I like that philosphy - fun has to be the k...Anne - I like that philosphy - fun has to be the key word.

I decided to just ask him if he wanted me to take him to school. When he responded with a definitive, "Yes." I did my best to keep my mouth shut and let it be. I would have loved to skip out, but it was also nice to see him go to school with confidence and leave at the end with joy to see us. <br />All those little decisions and we never know for certain to which end they will come.Amy BGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798479131474759065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850994802687070206.post-37119443079989538762010-11-14T03:00:44.706-05:002010-11-14T03:00:44.706-05:00I would say that you had an awesome stepmother who...I would say that you had an awesome stepmother who was in tune with you. Much to be thankful for! <br />As for children's activities, I always encouraged mine to be involved (even to extremes) as long as it was fun. As soon as it was not fun, a chore, a burden, it was time to stop. <br />Some children will explore many things; others will latch on to one passion to the exclusion of all else--maybe to mastery and excellence! The joy of discovery awaits you!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005970195667904299noreply@blogger.com
