Buried in homework, but aren't my buttons cute?

Homework overload at our place and Kelsie is buried... explications, political issues, statistics, government homework and an essay on Should Community Service be Mandatory to Graduate?
All are due within several days of each other. And she has been on my laptop. How can I possibly blog?

Kids are pushed harder now. Times have changed. Where is the down time? I don't remember high school being this tough... of course, I don't remember taking homework home and I either didn't know or didn't care enough to take the ACT test. I went fishing in the afternoons when school got out.

Kelsie giggled all day last Thursday whenever she looked at her cute little buttons on her new shirt. I believe she has shown them to nearly all of her teachers too. She is quite taken with them and finds them very attractive.

Stir Fry

Stir fry with our Nana introduced us to a whole bunch of vegetables we have never tried... I have to say that broccoli, green beans & onions are still supreme in the veggie world. What Ash didn't like, she would just put in my bowl. Hmmm. I am not sure how to pronounce what they were. Abby's friends ate over and tried it too.
