Eleanore lost three teeth in the span of 2 weeks. She lost first big front tooth during on Sunday during Caroline Panther game.

The next one came out the next Sunday right before lunch. The Tooth Fairy didn't make to leave a gift or to take the tooth. On Monday night Ella received a nice note and 2.00 for her tooth.

Tooth three came out on Tuesday night with no trauma. This time Tooth Fairy stopped the same night and left another $2.00 with a note

I finally purchased some bathroom decor.

Actually the coupon for $10 off a $50 purchase in Bed and Bath plus 25% of using Cartwheel app narrowed down my choice to Target and the need to buy before the coupons expired.  I liked this rug and picked the other stuff to go with it.

I read two books on organizing kids. Both were geared for middle school and high school age and more for keeping track of papers from school and homework.Both books had very similar ideas and suggestions. I checked the books out from library because the books were just setting out and I was hopping that I would get some ideas for my home.  I learned the following:

- Left handed people may not like writing in binders and spiral notebooks because the hit the spines. Solution is to use legal pads and an accordion style organizer.

- Just cause the kids bedroom is messy doesn't mean they are disorganized and lazy.

- The normal student planner often isn't setup to work with all students. Solution - purchase a teacher planner which gives a look at a week at a time.
