What the...???

I teach a class on Tuesdays and Thursdays at a charter school. It's a small keyboard class with 4 students. I really love my kids. :) They're so cute and sweet and they're all making great progress!

That's not the point.

The point is... I drive up to Higley and Brown for this class (which isn't the point either). I have a very specific routine for my drive to the school. I leave my house at about 8am, stop by Starbucks on Greenfield & 60, and continue on my way up to the school. The last half mile is particularly unnerving, seeing as there are a lot of kids on their way to school around that time.

My official point is... what the heck is up with all of these kids, riding bikes, talking on cell phones??????? I just can't believe the number of kids talking on their cell phones as they ride their bikes along... let alone a busy street! I mean, come on!! I can understand giving your kid a prepaid phone for emergencies only. But, to chat and socialize... oh my gosh.

Ok, I'm done ranting for the time being. :)

you were obviously homeschooled if you never saw that....

(sorry I couldn't help myself!)

Whatevs!!!! Maybe it's a testament to how old I am - I swear none of my friends in high school had cell phones. I didn't see that phenomenon until college!

I think that's Rob's store! He's so nice.

LOVED August Rush. If I never met my kids I don't think I'd recognize them at 11.

My kids won't be on cell phones and bikes. We're old school - they get beepers. :)
