English Drama at Jasper’s Nursery

August 16th, 2005 · 1 Comment

I took Monday morning off to attend an English Drama event at Jasper’s nursery.

June 7th, 2005 · 2 Comments

“No!”
“Were you careless or naughty?”

October 6th, 2004 · Comments Off

Apparently Morris was doing okay in his first month at school, but starting this week he was crying loud and pretty much non-stop.
