Today’s Victory Goes to: the school 3-20-2012

Yep, you read it right. Today’s victory goes to the school. Tonight was the Spring music concert for the junior and senior high school bands and choirs. What a fantastic performance by all involved in the music department. From the guest conductor’s to the solos performed by the band leader, both guests, and members of the bands, today was all about the music. If these kids can take one piece of tonight’s performance with them, let them know that music can be with them for the rest of their lives. They don’t need to be in a band to enjoy music. Kudos to all involved. And thank you for the excellent performances. Tweet #fighting4answrs

facebook – my archnemesis

So we took away computer priveleges. now, he steals laptops from his sibs to get on facebook. I have submitted a request to facebook to get his accounts deleted, though this does little good if he can create a new account at will. So what to do? I explained to David that he isn’t allowed on facebook for safety reasons. We have explained that to him many times. Tweet #fighting4answrs
