FYI

Just some things I've encountered recently...

1. I bought mandarin oranges yesterday. For 1.6 kilos (3.5 pounds), I paid $1.00 US. Not bad, eh?

2. At work today I helped put on a parent workshop called "Reading at Home with Your Pre-First Child". Only a few parents showed up, along with one nanny who had questions "on behalf of Mehdi's mom". Kind of like the parent who asked if she could send her secretary to parent/teacher conferences. Really?!?! How uninvolved can you get?

Parent involvement seems to be the same everywhere!
