Before we brought the baby home from the hospital, we were asked how we would introduce our dog, a female white German shepherd, to the baby. My husband wasn’t worried, but I worried about it from the moment that I knew I was pregnant. Dogs can sense chemical and hormonal...

Today was my first day back at work. Students aren't on campus yet, so we get to spend the next four fun-filled days in back-to-back meetings. Some of these meetings are important, for example, we met our new principal, who seems great, and it was good to know what his goals, attitudes, and...

Man-cub starts the 9th grade next Wednesday. In Davis that means this is his last year of Junior High School. Our HS goes 10-12th grade, but his grades still count as if he were in HS. Complicated, I know.

It’s that time of year again. I can practically SMELL the pencils being sharpened and hear the moaning as I mention that this week is the last week of summer. Sadly, it’s the last week for us both (my classes start Monday, man-cub’s start Wednesday).

But she was faltering. The...
