supervising from the couch: Pioneer Day

Pioneer Day

I was the photographer for 4th grade Pioneer Day, and took almost 600 photos. Good practice, I guess. I narrowed it down to my favorite shot of each student and group and I'm working on a slideshow that I think they'll enjoy.

Ainsley loved the center of attention most of the time, and had the serious pioneer face down.

And after comparing all 97 students, my unbiased opinion is that you won't find a more handsome 4th grade cowboy.

here's the story:

I was interviewed for a newpaper article about kids and sleep, and quoted as saying something like "when I'm tired, I feel like supervising from the couch." Ever since, it's been our catch phrase for slacker parenting. Ironically, I only had one child at the time and we were practically attached at the hip. Now that I have four older kids, they spend chunks of time playing without even the benefit of me watching from the couch. However, I do try to come running if it sounds like there might be blood. Somehow they have all thrived in spite of me.
