I still have letters for claiming on this post, so give me something to ramble about?

Duke keeps getting stuck in the playpen. I don't know why we still have it up, or how he actually gets IN it, but it's kinda funny.

Larkin is STILL not here. If she doesn't come by next Friday, Kris will be induced, but she's already at 4cm, so hopefully we'll have a baby soon.

Monkey got his short cast yesterday, and the dr said his break has healed nicely, so three more weeks and he'll be good to go.

We're supposed to have triple digit temps the next few days, so I think I'm gonna be a homebody. What's happening with yall?

I agree, to both of those things. We've got SOLs (standards of learning) in VA that pretty much fucked the kids over - instead of learning how to LEARN, they're learning how to memorize pointless bullshit and it doesn't do any of them any good. And they test the kids and split them up at the beginning of the year in our elementary school so that they can be with peers who are on the same learning level as them, but then you end up with Davey learning the same thing as Ronnie in different grades b/c Davey's top of his class and Ronnie's at the bottom of his. The teachers try, but they can only do so much because of SOLs. Blah!

He didn't get his artistic ability from me. I can't draw stick figures either.
