- My 14-year-old won 3rd place in high school division of the library's summer bookmark design contest. The theme was "Seek the Unknown". (You can see all of the winners at teenbookmarks.)

| A little after the end, quite a bit before the beginning, mostly toward the middle, is where our story starts... |
- My 12-year-old auditioned for and is a member of Singing Sensations, the after-school show choir at her middle school. She has auditioned for the St. Louis Metro 8 choir and find out soon is she is a member.
- Vacation Station (the before/after school program) has been fabulous for Luke. Through funding provided by the St. Charles Country Developmental Disabilities Resource Board, he has a wonderful one-on-one para.
- The move to high school has been wonderful for the 14-year-old. I have only seen this amount of enthusiasm one other year in her entire education. She has joined the art club and is busy helping to build the homecoming float (they almost always win best float!). She is also a part of the drama club. For the first production, See How They Run, she is a part of the paint team.
- Luke is expanding his list of acceptable foods. He loves hot dogs and bratwurst. They need to be bite sized pieces (he can't take a bite with his front teeth) and dipped in ketchup and mustard.
Until next time...
