Month: August 2008

Well, it was a nice Saturday at the Susong house. Nothing exciting, did some yard work, cleaned the house, played with daycare with Parker. He has been watching Daddy daycare ALOT! Then we went to the library. Parker really likes to play at the library. Carson is going to get his 8 month pictures taken tonight. He really needs a haircut, this would be his second. That boy’s hair is crazy! Well, I am going to continue my good day, and take a nap.
Oh, here are some pictures of the work we’ve done around the patio. We just put the grass seed down. That’s what the green stuff is. And some pictures of our fun at the library.

We are at barksdale (Kayce’s School) today when Kayce works ok her classroom. Teachers have a surprising amount of work to do to get ready for the school year. So, we all just came with her while she does it. Parker really likes to play in her room, anyway. Plus, for me it beats doing yard work. I did, however get up this morning and now the back hill, and trim alittle. It is so nice outside today. I am going to try to finish my project around the patio tonight. It shouldn’t be too rough. Well, that my day. I hope yours is as good!

Well, it’s finally over… Summer has come to and end for Kayce and every other Montgomery county school teacher. They are back at school doing in-services and trainings. The children show up on Friday for the first half day of school. Kayce is excited. She is looking forward to having an entire year with the kids instead of the interrupted year she had with maturity leave last year.  I have to admit that I still don’t entirely understand her job…  There is alot more to teaching than just teaching.  The “standards”, “no child left behind”, “lesson plans”; it all sounds alittle crazy to me.  I tend to get myself in trouble pretty fast when I offer suggestions.  I just don’t get it.  Oh well, not everyone can have a great job like mine I guess. 

The boys are in for a big adjustment.  Having Momma home all summer long always makes for an intersting transition into the school year.  Having Kayce’s mom watch the boys helps out alot with that stress, though.  If we had to leave them a daycare that would be really tough.  Well, not for me, I’m at work all year anyway…  HA!
