A Butterfly Moment: April 2014
http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Friday, April 11, 2014. I often read bumper stickers and try to figure out what kind of person drives that car. Sometimes the stickers make me laugh. Or think. But mostly I wonder what in the world someone was thinking when they stuck that. Today I saw a bumper sticker on a big, green truck today that said, "Extremely Rightwing." Really? Just what does that mean? And just what does this person want me to think about them?

http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Wednesday, November 13, 2013. You may not have noticed my son, Adam, yet. He hates to be the center of attention, so it's okay that you haven't noticed him. He likes it that way. But I want you to know more about him before you do. Because he's a special kid, my middle child. I've known a lot of kids in my life and career and have never known one quite like him. He can become obsessive. Whatever it is that he is into at...

A Butterfly Moment: 10 Things Thursday
http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2014/05/10-things-thursday.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Thursday, May 22, 2014. 10 things that were most definitely NOT invented by teachers. 3 Gogurt wrappers. Gogurt itself is genius. Yogurt that you can suck out of a tube and don't need a spoon for? It's the wrappers that are the problem. The "tear here" message and slit is too small or too high or nonexistent on at least 75% of wrappers. That is why I have a pair of "gogurt scissors" on my desk. They try to use their teeth&#...

http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2014/01/resolved.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Saturday, January 04, 2014. I STILL haven't reached those goals? I'm STILL trying to be that person? But I've come to realize that as long as I live, I will strive to meet those goals. I will always want to be healthier and holier and better. It's not a bad thing to have the same goals every year. Because will I ever be the best I can be? I feel the same way. Just kidding. mostly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Butterfly Moment: February 2014
http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Monday, February 03, 2014. A few months ago, Arrty was reading a book given to him by his boss. It's called "Leadership and Self-Deception: Getting Out of the Box." Sounds exciting, right? Mysterious boxes that I should get out of? After briefly considering "losing" his book, I realized that he was right. Sigh. I wasn't being fair. We finished his homework without anyone screaming or crying. I like my boxes! If there's one ...

A Butterfly Moment: June 2013
http://abutterflymoment.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
A wife, mom, and teacher's look at the world and the mostly good moments in life. Wednesday, June 19, 2013. I knew I must read it! I picked it up from the library yesterday and couldn't put it down. I am finding it extremely fascinating to see how people describe their lives in six words. Some funny, some sad, some touching, some thought provoking. I decided to mark my favorites planning for this post. I started marking.and marking.and marking. Here's what happened. 6 Dorothy Gale had the right idea....
