The Five of Us, Spring 2014
Retrospective--Part 5
11 July 2010
I thought of one more thing... The kiddinkidinks won the lottery! To attend year-round school, that is. We got the letters on July 2. They gave us 5 calendar days to respond--no grace for the holiday weekend! Yipes! But, I talked to the school and they're really, truely in! They start classes at the new school on the 21st. Feels fast, but only because it was a surprise!

Talk To Me
I blog for myself and my kids and I would do it even if no one else cared, but I do like to hear from you (and think it's a wee bit creepy of you to voyeurize us without my knowing it). So, please leave a comment from time to time, or email me anytime at xawilsons@hotmail.com. Much obliged, I'm sure.
