Good morning everyone!

Life is good.

Dear 14 year olds

Adele seems to have had it rough. You are a 14 year old, fairly privileged girl from Westchester. Singing Adele will not demonstrate good vocals, nor is it likely that you have had said heartbreaks. Please be more creative in your vocal selections for an important audition.
Thanks,
A teacher who believes in the youth of America

The good stuff

Facebook has become ridiculous.  If you want to know all the cute stuff about my little ladies, this is the spot :)

An important lesson from Diana

"Mom, today, Diana, you know the little girl in my class, she told me that I shouldn't stick up my middle finger alone."  says Penelope.
After I put my eyeballs back in my head, I said "Oh, well, she is right, it means something bad.".
 I could see the wheels turning in her head.  Penelope then said "But...........maybe.............I was wondering.......you couldtell me..........you know........maybe...well, I know you can't say it, but............maybe there's a good way to tell me what it means."
You're a sweet little lady.  Stay that way, Peanut.
