We make majors moves around here..

I get to embrace my inner educator this week.  In more ways than one, I am going to be teaching yet again.  Yes, I’m running a few educational webinars and writing some ebooks but other than that…I’m teaching a little session to a group of parents this week regarding their child’s educational records. 

Our school system using a common system that the parents can log into and check out, grades, attendance, notes from the teacher and more.  So, I’m going to show some folks how to make that work.  I am looking forward to that.  I like teaching adults.

And, naturally there is the never ending list of homework that comes home each night.  I mean, honestly, is it possible that we can keep up this pace all year?  If you think I’m joking, you should take a poke around the first grade site I designed. 

Let me know, what do you think?

Label it baby, with Label Daddy

I don’t have to tell you about products around the ol’ web that I don’t believe in.  That’s because there are tons of products and people worth my time and energy.  One email to Scott from Label Daddy and bam, my kid has the coolest labels on his school supplies of any kid in first grade.

Scott thought he was so adorable, he wrote a note to Walker telling him that he was sending him the gift because he liked “me” so much.  Ha, how’s that for being special.  And, he extended his affection by featuring my son on his Wordless Wednesday.

Honestly is this kid not cute as a button?  And, check him out with ALL his supplies….

Yes that is just his school supplies and two pair of shoes, one pair to leave at school for physical education.  Now…what about his clothes?  Too hot to move to winter stuff just yet so we are all good there and heck, with labels like these, I might stick them in his clothes too.
