Neil Diamond and a Chance of Meatballs

On Friday we celebrated Liam's first week of school by attending an outdoor movie at his school, Mitchell. There is nothing better than elementary schoolers jammin' to Neil Diamond's greatest hits such as Coming to America, Thank the Lord for the Nighttime, and Cherry, Cherry. All that was served up with the main attraction, the whip smart comedy, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. So much fun.

First Day of School

Well my dream of having my children walk to school like i did will not come true. I am proud though that Liam will be among the third generation of students in my family attending the CPS. I am glad that the public schools here in the city still has something to offer my children and that we haven't given up on the system. I am excited for Liam and Ella starting school together on Tuesday, I plan to take the morning off to take him to his first day at Mitchell. I hope to give him some token or object to mark the day. Maybe a watch, time is ticking, they grow up so fast, but look forward to the next 12-18 years of this journey.
