Blog #30 Open Book

“Thank you so much for sharing Ian with the students.  My son rarely talks much about his day in school, but when I picked him up Tuesday, he started telling me about Literature class and your son being there.

WittFitt Owner is back in the Classroom

A New Perspective on Student Movement Hello Educators, I hope you’re enjoying a well-deserved summer break.

At 10 years old, encouraged by my love for the […]

#26 Birthday Pooper

Asking me, probably every day, “Is Grace coming home, Is Grace coming home?” To which, again and again, I answered, “Yes, […]

#25 To Phone or Not To Phone?

HAPPY 15th BIRTHDAY IAN!  Every year, a few months before his birthday, Ian requests that we start a list with his crazy ideas, so that we are prepared to fulfill all of his birthday wishes.
