1st Grade Sit-in
Our younger daughter has ups and downs with distance learning so far. Our other children, too. Maybe most kids do. Not made easier by the two-way bilingual dynamic for the program she’s in. Recently I sat with our six year old as she began her school day. “Mariana Mariana...” the kids repeat. I sit quietly …
Lyrics Post: “Ants Marching”
This song wasn’t the first I heard by Dave Matthews, but it probably was the one that hooked me to his music. “He wakes up in the morning Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling Never changes a thing The week ends the week begins She thinks, we look at each other Wondering …
Hand-Off
Parents have been doing it forever; more broadly speaking, caregivers of kids have been doing it forever. It’s how we support them. It’s also how we support each other.

Labor Day
The late 19th Century saw the labor movement gain ground. As the turn of the century approached the movement spurred popular support to such degree that national, and international holidays were established to recognize and celebrate workers around the world.

Lyrics Post: “Everyday Glory”
You might be thinking, “RUSH must be this guy’s pandemic band…” not so. In fact, this band has buoyed me for the better part of my life. Here’s another great lyric from a more recent tune by these guys, so true, seeking every day glory. Enjoy. “In the house where nobody laughs And nobody sleeps …
