In My Own Words

My son (he is 4 going on 5), has an incredible imagination. I love to just go with the flow when he starts telling his "stories". He comes up with the funniest, most drawn out tales. The whole family will get involved and he has our undivided attention. We can't wait to hear the ending. Dinner at our family table never gets boring. Smiles and laughter are always on the menu.

Parents I'd Like to Meet

I would like to meet other parents in my local neighborhood who have children starting Kindergarten at Plum Canyon this fall. I am also interested in getting my son involved in learning a second language.
