Education and Creatvity

There is a video here where Ken Ronbinson talks about how we raise our children and how they are taught in school. He encourages a creative aproach to teaching. I totally agree with this and love the ideas he represents. Maybe because I am creative... but maybe we all are?

Kaden turns ONE.

I wanted to take some pictures to document my baby turning one. It has been a very very short year!



Here Meghan is showing me where he is supposed to be sitting. She wanted him to sit with her and take pictures but he wasn't in the mood to be still . haha




Here are a few more. Meghan went over to the toys to get near him for the picture. Does he look a little naughty in the last picture to you? It's because he has her hair in his hand. :)



Study away

Here are just a couple pictures of Meghan doing her reading. She is doing great at it, almost through the first book in her Hooked On Phonics set. It is awesome to hear her reading!

American Idol

I haven't been able to keep up well here but I plan to catch up this weekend. :) This is important though i think. We watch American Idol. We love to watch the singing. Of course we let the Tivo record for us and we watch it when we can, usually after it's over that night. Anyways, they have been surprising us, both the contestants and the show. The contestants have been choosing songs about God, Dolly Parton song a song about God and during this week the entire cast sang "Shout to the Lord", twice! During the Idol Gives Back show where they are asking for donations for charity they sang it to close the show and then the next day for the results show they sang it to open the show. I am just so excited about that! it is ok to talk about God on TV once in a while. Here is the show opener version if you missed it.
