We spent a good chunk of time with neighbors fighting the new elementary school boundary change. The district wants to move us from the elementary school right outside our neighborhood, where the kids can easily and quickly walk to, to the one we used to attend, which is further away and on busier roads. Our neighborhood attended board meetings, filled out surveys, sat on street corners counting cars for a traffic study and on and on....
Instead of sitting on the corner counting cars I chose to tend someone's baby so that person could. The kids loved having a little baby around

The kids found a fun surprise in their stockings this year.... NOTHING!
Oh wait, there was one thing, a note from Santa encouraging them to work on a couple things so that he can fill their stockings next year.
Thank you Santa for all the fun gifts
