**THROWBACK POST**

August 21 2013:

Hanging out at the library before Parent Information night at HDMS … loaded with chapter books for Thomas and Lillian. These two go through some books!

Light dinner before Parent Information Night at HDMS … YUM! French fries for Lillian, Pepperoni Pizza for Thomas and Salad for me …. Happy Team!

December 7 2021: A note of reflection as I read what I wrote with these two posts. I did not have the gas money to drive all the way home after school, and then back to the school for Parent Information Night.

I also didn’t have enough money for a full dinner for us. However, I did have a coupon for a free personal size pizza. I ordered the cheapest thing on the menu for me (salad), and Lillian was and is always happy with fries.

Thomas and Lillian did not know this is why we had this type of evening, as I tried my best to always make things seem like an adventure.
