Lessening the Proximity
Last week, Robert, Alexis and Henry passed through on their way to their new home in Newark, DE. For the future, we are thrilled at the prospect of seeing them more often. For the present, we were tickled to get an update on all things Teitelbaum.
Old friends to us, new friends to the kids....

Into the Woods
Every year, I make myself ill with the anticipation of the Spring Musical.
Every year, I complain and stress over my responsibilities as a director, conductor, costumer, and set designer.
Every year, I fuss at my children when they don't do things "just so", they miss practice because they misread the calendar, and they goof off during rehearsals because they've actually followed my direction and become a team.
Every year, I sacrifice my time with my family....
And, every year, I cry when it's all over.
As an educator, I am proud of my students' talents and accomplishments. As a wife, I am humbled by my husband's willingness to take the reigns. As a mother, I am thankful for a happy baby who was able to make her stage debut in this production. As a director, I will say that no matter how hard it gets, and how much I have to sacrifice, I will never, ever give this up as long as my name is on that classroom door.

Happy Birthday, Jack!
Two weeks ago, we were invited to a grand soiree. Jack Urban Keeler turned one year old (his Mom and I not only teach in the same school, but we enjoy the milestones of motherhood together). It was a wonderful wagon-themed bash filled with laughter, toys....
....and this beautiful shot of our little one whose party will be the topic of a blog in the not too distant future.
