Jim May and the Boston Conservatory

Richard was able to spend the week doing a residency with Jim May who is the Artistic Director of the Sokolow Theater/Dance Ensemble, New York (and still teaching at 79!).  Along with a grant from the Linde Foundation and help from other Boston Conservatory teachers, the students were able to work with this world renown choreographer and learn about modern dance.  Praise for Mr. Murphy (the kids theater teacher) as well.  He could be doing so much more with his skill, but his passion is teaching elementary school kids.
Because of a snow day, they had one less day, but their performance was still great.  I can't say enough about how I love our school and community because of the opportunities these kids have.  I am also always so proud of my sports loving kid who continues to broaden his horizons!

Singing the ABC's

So I finally got it on camera although it isn't his best effort. For those of you who have been around us recently, you know how Rich sings the ABC song ALL DAY LONG. It is obviously his favorite song and he is really good at it! In this video he misses a lot of the letters because he does not want to be taped. But he literally knows all the letters and the ending. I guess he was developing his verbal skills when he was sitting on his bottom for all those months NOT crawling. This was taken this morning and I had to bribe his with a cookie. It was only 9 am, but it was the only way I could get him to do it for the camera.

An absolutely beautiful day for my Angela Jane!  She looked absolutely gorgeous and she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.  She celebrated with her family and then with friends who feel like family now.  We are truly blessed! Brunch with family at Monica's and then a bbq at the Crocini's. How cute is she with her bbf's?!?!?!
