One can't help but look around at the beautiful scenes of nature and the innocence of children and see HOPE! Hang on, friends! There's always tomorrow!
 
 
Your turn...
 
Let's CommuniCATE!

Ugh! Wake Up!!! You are a BLOG, you know!!!

So it's been awhile...

Don't ask... I'll just tell you...

Life happened... Illness, family, job, tired, blah, blah, blah!

And then the excuses started that I always used to NOT start a blog in the first place...

1. I don't really have anything to say that anyone wants to read...
2. It's been too long between posts...
3. How embarrassing!
4. No one will ever follow again!

You know the routine...

But the fact of the matter is we all have something to say -- whether in words, pics, thoughts, actions, etc...

In the classroom, we constantly harp on communication skills, and quite frankly, encouraging and enabling a child to express his/her story in a comprehensive manner is what it's all about...

The platform? Meh! I personally use Twitter right now for PD, but have recently used Twitter to  communicate with my 16 year old niece who lives 800 miles away more than ever before... In fact, via that platform and Vine, I may know more about what's going on in her Story of Life than her parents do!

With my own parents? Oh... with Mom it's the good old-fashioned telephone, and with Dad, it's email...

With the majority of my friends, I communicate with text and with the majority of my co-workers it is Google Chat...

So here I am with you... spouting my story and taking up the OLD BLOG once again!

It's your turn...

Let's CommuniCATE!
