The bad news: Shawn and Gus didn’t show up. The good news: no one died.\ Max won his class spelling bee, so he got to participate in the school bee. The winner will be sent to the regional bee to compete in the 4th-8th grade group. I went to the school bee today and cheered […]

Spelling bee!
The Coriolis Effect
The Coriolis Effect from Kevin Lawver on Vimeo. Max and I made this little movie yesterday as his visual aid for his report on the Coriolis Effect. I figured out that it took us about an hour of work for every ten seconds of end product. I hope the boy gets an A.
My Best Photos of 2009
Funny, there seems to be a theme here. Well, three out of four ain’t bad.
Max’s Karate Graduation
It’s a big weekend for Max. He got his yellow belt last night, and it’s his 10th birthday on Sunday! Check out all the pics in the set on Flickr\ Also, my first blog post for The South is up! They asked real nice, and I’ll be posting geeky bits there every couple of weeks.
Max
I’ve been sick the last couple of weeks and haven’t done anything other than the bare minimum to keep the household functioning. Sadly, blogging does not fall into the priority chores list. I did have to pop in to say, “Max made yellow belt in karate!” YAY for him. Hopefully Kevin will post pics soon […]
Maybe next time I’ll post the good things
\ Christmas in Mississippi 2006\ I want to complain some more about Max’s school. All of my complaints are sort of minor, but things I find annoying.\ I’ll just refer you to the post below to see my traffic-jam rant.\ The clubs have switched times from after school to the last 45 minutes of school. […]
Bullet points!
Max has started reading this blog (hi, Max!) so I need to stop with the adult or subversive posts. I’m not sure what else there is to write, ha. I haven’t been feeling ranty lately which is a good thing given my new posting restrictions. The Hofstra case really has me irked though. Max has […]
Taking the Boys to Atlanta
Max’s Blue Man Group Audition from Kevin Lawver on Vimeo. The boys and I went to Atlanta last weekend to hang out with my pal David and go to the Georgia Aquarium. We stayed in a hotel right downtown, went to the Children’s Museum, ate at Legal Seafood, went swimming, watched a movie and had […]
Max can hiii-yaaah you up!
Max started karate last week. I had intended it to be something he could do once a week, so that I wouldn’t be an “over-scheduling parent” but the instructor talked me into having Max come twice a week. Turns out, Max has been going everyday because he loves it so. So much for my intentions. […]
Kevin is always right!
I shall not question him anymore. Except sometimes.\ Two hours at the doctor’s office, hundreds of dollars, six medicines… Max has asthma, an ear infection, allergies.\ All three of my boys have asthma now. Woe.
