Flash Back.................





12 Years ago during high school I attended the simplot games in Pocatello Idaho with my team. We ran the 4x800 meter relay. This is the largest indoor high school track meet in the nation. (left to right...... Sinika, Me, Lindsey and Angie. The picture is a bad copy but I am excited I found it.
This past weekend I took 11 of my athletes to the Simplot games in Idaho. My girls team ran the 4x4 relay as well as my boys. It was fun to be there and participate from a different standpoint.

Parent teacher conferences........

Yesterday was parent teacher conferences for Kade. For those of you who, who do not know, Kade is in 1st grade. He will be 7 in April. The reason I am explaining all this is because his teacher informed me yesterday that he is above grade level in all his academics. However................ He is struggling in social. Not that he is shy or does not get along well with his classmates. He is a social butterfly with the GIRLS! or as the teacher would say, "Kade cannot keep the girls away" UH OH! He has to be moved everytime he is seated next to a girl. The teacher thinks it is hard on Kade because at first she thought it was him doing all the talking and distracting, however after she observed and listened to what Kade would tell her she realized the girls just like to talk to him. Long story short he has received FOUR valentines already from girls in his class. This is what most of them say..........


I am only posting this because the teacher was concerned for Kade because he is being distracted in class. He tries to ignore the girls and now his teacher is well aware of the situation and steps in when she needs too.
