Micah could sing before he could talk. You would hear him humming "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and you knew what it was. You go Micah!

Um, yea...i'd vote for a few more educators in our school so that this problem can be erased all together!

Erin, those kids, and your own kids, are lucky to have you. And that's all I've got to say about that.

"...I'd just like to remind him of one thing. General McChrystal's ultimate solution is 40,000 more troops in Afghanistan."

Game over. This is ABSOLUTELY the difference. Great post.

And PS, when you're ready to become the fearless leader, I might just be willing to teach at your school! :)

Have you read Girl Meets God by Lauren Winner? It is great! Chad got it for me years ago and I really enjoyed it. I think I will re-read it actually!

WOW. Major thoughts going on in that boy's mind!!! Smart mom for catching onto it. Don't you just love finding the differences in your children, so many things alike and so many things different! Elijah has a lot going on in that busy mind of his!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful personality and profound insights! I'm persuing your blog for the first time and already I've laughed out loud and been on the verge of tears quite a few times! Your honesty, your authenticity, your lovely spirit - so refreshing and encouraging! May God bless you as you continue to bring peace to your world.

I liked this post. Especially the part about the hug reconciliation. I have seen the same forgiveness in Cora's smile.

Hi Erin! Glad to hear that you are still in Wilmore. Congrats on the move, Elijah's school and everything else. I'm assuming he is @ Wilmore Elem still? Jon David started first grade yesterday, and after an initial rough time, had a great second day. Maybe I'll see ya around!
