I am sitting here listening to Calvin practice his trumpet. There is no "better" sound than a brand new band student practicing his instrument... Calvin started band this week and while he is quite excited and eager to practice at every opportunity, the rest of us are not quite so thrilled... Coco is hiding under the desk...
Calvin also had an enrichment class after school today. He took a basic drama class. Calvin enjoyed it immensely. Enrichment classes are offered twice a year to the elementary students to allow them to explore some different interests. Each of our kids have signed up for three or four so they will be doing many interesting things over the weeks to follow.
While waiting for the kids at the public library today, I observed the traffic out on what is the main street through downtown. Now granted, this is far from being a big town but there is a steady stream of traffic down this street. I noticed that every single driver in every single car that passed me was talking on their cell phone. Wow! That cannot be a safe practice. After this being completely banned in France, we got out of the habit and are hoping to not fall back into it.
