Our fall festival was a huge success. We earned more money than we have with any fundraiser we have ever done. The kids had a ball. Some parents thought it was a little chaotic, but it was an organized chaos. We had 16 games and the kids bought tickets and could go around and play whatever game they wanted to. My favorite part, watching the teenagers help the little kids. The best part, a couple of the kids from last year came back just to hang out for the day and play games.
We had one meltdown, the little kindergartener looks at his mom and says" I don't want it to stop, this is the best day ever." I guess a school fall festival beats a school field trip to Disney.

Sick
My bug and my little pony are both sick. A trip to the Dr is being added to an already busy day. My little pony helps lead a Brownie Girl Scout troop. This morning she was worried about what the little girls would do tonight, without her. This time the parents can step up and lead the girls, because my little one is staying home. My little pony competes in horse shows, and there is a huge one this weekend. We need her well for that.
My bug turns 19 next week, not sure what we are going to do for her birthday. This week has been really hard for her, she has several major test, a couple of projects, and two or three papers to do. I'm wondering if she got sick from being up working on all her school work and not getting enough rest. A full load is considered 12 hours, she is taking 18 this semester.
Off to school this morning to get ready for the fall festival tomorrow. The principal came in my office yesterday and told me it was way to messy and I needed to clean it up. Problem is; it isn't really messy, it is just filled with the games and prizes for the fall festival. We are also raffling off baskets that the classes have filled. Those are also hanging out in my small tiny closet of an office. I need some sense of order to be able to work and work well, and I don't have it this week.

Hello
Thought this first post should be a little about me and where I got the name. I am a mother of three. My bug is almost 19 and in her sophomore year of college. My scooter is 16 and a junior in high school, and my little pony is 14 and a freshman. My kids attend a small private/homeschool school. They go four days a week and I homeschool the fifth day. I am the assistant principal for the school. We have 2 buildings; a high school building and an elementary building. The principal's office is in the high school building and she takes care of all of those kids, my office is in the elementary building and I deal with all of those kids every day. Most of what I write here will be things that happened in my office at school. It is just to good not to share.
