It Worked!
Hello again! It looks like it worked. Yahoo! I'm on the air!
I am doing good. There are some changes coming into our lives. I'm hoping it will be a good thing. I'm moving to the Denver, Colorado area. Place called Lakewood. Nice area. Will be moving around Aug 1. Will be renting an apartment.
Jasper finished his first year of school (Kindergarten)here in Durango. He loved it. He has learned a lot. He would get a certain colored slip of paper home with him everyday (Had 3 colors they could bring home: green-very good, yellow-did something wrong-not good, red- very bad, if you got red and still misbehaved, there was a chance that you could get white which meant you had to go to the principal). Jasper did so good at bringing home the green ones for a long time. *When they got 30 green slips they traded them in for a peice of paper called a character count (like a certificate). When they got 7 charactar counts, they got to have lunch with the principal. At the end of the year they would get to go on a special outing with the principal. * Jasper did this and got to go, with the other kids that got this, to their own special viewing of Shrek 2. At the end of school Jasper started bringing home green slips still, with an occasional yellow, but started acting a little funny. I dug through his jacket pockets and found that he had been getting yellow and one or two red slips but somehow he was making his own green slips and bringing those home! Never saw that one coming. He is too smart for his own good! We had a big talk about lying and what he did was wrong.
Other than that, things here are good. Getting Jasper ready for 1st grade soon. I finally taught him how to tie his shoelaces. That one took a while. Well, this is too long for just a message post so, I will wrap this up and write again soon.

Karrie,
1st of all welcome to the board it's great to hear from you especially after so long, I'm glad you are doing well and got this posting malarky all figured out! The inventivness of kids always surprises me! We just have to learn how to be more sneaky, grow eyes in the backs of heads, and never take anything at face value (if you bust them early its better/easier for everyone) We are sticking to velcro shoes for right now - but I'm sure laces will be in our future!
