One of my most prized possessions are the back-to-school interviews that I have done with my kids each year for as long as they've been in school. This one is of Nathan going into Pre-K about 3 years ago and it is by FAR my favorite one of him! So this year I was excited…

It was Nathan's final day to wear his school uniform as a First Grader. My, how he's changed in just 9 short months since he started on this journey! He's so bummed that school is ending, saying often that he wishes he could keep going everyday to see his friends, his teachers, and of course,…

Two nights later lonely boy loses one dollar. Lonely boy sets up a camera to spy on person he suspects is…
