"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Still no school.

The teacher's strike is still going on. We're optomistic that Chloe will be able to start school next week-- hopefully Monday. She keeps asking when she gets to go to kindergarten and why there is no school. I tried to explain the concept of "going on strike" to her without it sounding like she could go on strike herself if she doesn't like what we tell her to do! Oy vey.

good plan! I could totally see Chloe going on strike against her parents! How annoying though that the strike is still going on!
