Happy Holidays from the Hassell clan. Obviously I am not really great at making blogs...I will work on this tomorrow when I am more coherent. Life is good but hectic as usual. Chad and I are trying to run his Kiosk at South Towne Mall and it has been a roller coaster!! Some days are great and others are so slow....ugh!!
The biggest news around here is the fact that we withdrew our three older boys from APA.. the charter school they have been attending for the past almost 6 years. Long story...but it was time to move on. They were feeling like they were in military school not public school. And yet they have learned so much and so many valueable life-lessons there. I still have Mallory there because she needs the repetition and the great fluidity of the education they offer her there. Not to mention her easy going personality fits so well with the whole discipline ideals they have there. So off to the local schools they went... Spencer to Crescent View Middle School and Hayden and Noah to Sprucewood Elementary. They have all had a great first week. Here are some of their comments..."I love the cafeteria"..."I love the big playground"...Its so laid back"... "Its so great to wear whatever I want everyday"....Obvoiusly they are happier. SO let's hope the pressure is off and they soar where they are. Happy children make for a happy home. :)
