I really enjoyed and respected Kiana’s personal response to the government shut-down story last week.  I have her permission to share it with you.
"I think it’s silly because a bunch of adults should get along.  I chose this because my mom works at the post office and I thought she would lose her job, but she didn’t. : )  This article is important because people are losing jobs and I would like to go to Yosemite one day.  Congress should do rock/paper/scissors, enee, meeny, miney, moe, and bubble gum, bubble gum, in a dish to help decide."

Since I was asked today, I thought I would share that the 4th Grade Madison trip has been set for Friday, April 11, 2014.  We take this trip with the 4th Grade class from Trinity.  I started the parent list this afternoon.  If you'd like to be added to the list, send me a text, an email, or a voice message.  You may also speak to me in person!
