OK, I’m changing my url… it’s now going to be a blog featuring nothing but photos of my kids at Woods Humane Society. They’re just sooooo cute. By the time my children are old enough to volunteer there (if they decide to), they’re going to be so familiar with animal care.

Montana De Oro Today

The kids are attending nature camp this week with Evan Albright of SLO Wanders. Today we visited Montana De Oro’s beautiful dunes and one of the beaches’ tide pools. What a gorgeous place and a great time with Evan, an amazing naturalist and kids’ mentor.

Los Osos Oaks

It’s over 700 frickin’ pages, by the way.

She Might Get Mad

Me: How would you feel about telling her that?

Gianna: Not good.

Me: That feels uncomfortable to tell her you’d like to do it a different way?

Gianna: Yeah. I think she [...]

Young Gourmet

I have to give a shout out to my new friends in Templeton*: Young Gourmet. We visited for a cooking class with our homeschool fieldtrip group today, and the kids made sweet potato fries and muffins. Super yum! The teachers were lovely and they let me jump in with my egg replacer powder [...]

Parent Participation Class

It’s like driving down a suburban street… everything’s in order… all the lawns are mowed… flowers peek out of pots… there’s something uneasy here. I’m not sure exactly what it is, but I want to break out of it.

Parent Participation Class: Bring the kids to a classroom, stand around watching them play, chat with the [...]
