Perfect! Thank you SO much, Steve!
That sounds fun, thanks! I'll try it. My husband also suggested we could try something related to the planets, and I found this:...
My kids are long done homeschooling, but I've been tutoring other people's kids since then. It's been a long time since I checked in on this...
Personally, I think the answer to this is yes, and yes. Yes, Zimmerman stalked Trayvon. He viewed himself as defending his "territory", standing...
No, they'd call him Babaji! The names have all been changed, and the word "Sambo" doesn't show up anywhere in the book. It should be pretty...
Actually there's plenty of different editions currently available at Amazon.com. I'd personally recommend "The Story of Little Babaji" as it...

I had to think about this one for a few days, before I could comment... I don't think the cover is respectful to the child. Children have their...
Aw... poor things! Is Mist very young? Is this her first litter? Can you nurse them yourself? Googling pulls up tons of sites with advice on...
Yay, Emjay! Well done, and may you have the strength to keep up the good work. One of the students I tutor likes to test me, too, and I use much...
I second this! Getting out of the house always helps defuse tension. Do you have a dog you can take with you? Being able to focus on an animal...
Thank you, everyone! I'll see if I can make contact with the other woman she lives with. I haven't seen her in a long while, and I've heard...
There's a lady who lives over on the next block, who I only know because she's on my canvassing route. Five times a year I ring her doorbell and...
Thank you, everyone! I talked to my husband, basically explaining that there really isn't a clear cut answer, but that when it comes down to...
