My Job as Life Skills Coach


For those of you who do not know, this year I took a job at South Summit Elementary School.
It is a new position the School District thought was needed. I thought to myself, I have raised 3 Adult children, 1 teenager and 1 tween home, how hard can it be? Perfect hours , days off with my boys right? WRONG!! this has turned in to one of the most challenging jobs I have ever had.
I am amazed daily how many children live in the "gray" area, no black and white rules are rules.
Sometimes the poor little farts look at me clueless, because they have not been taught any boundries at home before entering school. I talk to them about making a "better choice" and being responsible for themselves, but seriously all of you young parents out there, please teach your little ones it will make life so much easier when they go to school. I will get down off of my soapbox now, and hope I have not offended anyone. Good Luck with your own kids....because all of mine have turned out so perfect!!! He He He

Spring Training


This weekend we left the snow behind and drove to St. George to stay with Grandpa Jim and take Denver to Spring Training in Mesquite Nevada. It was a nice change of weather and temperature!! Do not be fooled by the green grass,, it is artifical turff but a very nice new complex. Denver is playing catch in photo, He did a great job. He hit a ball clear to center field it hit and bounced over the fence, so no homerun but he was noticed. I can't even believe it is Baseball season already!! We still have about 8 inches of snow, I guess we will be traveling to most of the games......Unless we get some warm warm weather, ha,ha,ha.

Baby Memphys


we stopped to deliver Valentines to the grandaughters and got this precious little smile!!!
