The other day I received a package. It was tossed onto the porch and Allison said to me. That box is singing? Singing? That is strange. So I opened the box and inside was a screener for the upcoming Dallas show on TNT. It was the coolest presentation for a new show that I’ve seen in a while. A faux leather cover and inside when you open up the container it played the theme from the original Dallas. I remember hearing that as a kid but never watching it because I was 3 when it first aired. It was a prime time soap opera for adults so I had little connection with it. When I was offered this screener I turned it down at first. Then when I was at Blog World Expo I caught up with the folks from social Chorus and they asked me again.

Today was another one of those milestones in a life of a family. It was Eva’s first last day of school. It was bittersweet because Eva has had such a wonderful year and has made some great friends but she was so upset about leaving them. She’s such a sensitive little girl which is wonderful but I often worry that she takes things too much to heart.
The classes came in and sang us a few songs in between each teacher giving a part of a speech. The kids were so cute. The presentation was called See You Later Alligator. That is what the the teachers and kids said because it isn’t goodbye just See you later because the kids will be back next year for classes. Each kid had a cute alligator hat on their head as they sang their songs. It was fun to watch them as they all sang the songs at their own pace and volume. It was cute and funny to watch. I recorded it for the family since everyone couldn’t make it to see this.
After the celebration we had an alligator shaped cake and other refreshments. Eva got to say goodbye to her friends and teachers. Plans were made for play dates and other fun things to do in the short couple months break between pre-k and kindergarten.
