So, lets say you're going to make a cake and you never had made this kind of cake before. You've made a similar cake to it, but not this one. You've made so many pudding poke cakes you can do them in your sleep on Ambien, but not the jello poke cake. And somehow, it sounds like a good idea to make one for your mom's birthday. Cause she likes orange and vanilla together.
And let's say you fail to read the directions carefully and poke holes in the cake with a wooden spoon handle, not a fork as the directions called for before pouring in the jello, you get a tasty cake that looks rather post modern. And you have no cool whip in the house to hide the damage.
Just saying.

School update
Well, I know I haven't talked much about how Bri and Jimmy are doing in school of late. So let me update you.
First, Jimmy is doing really well. We got his progress report and except for still learning three prayers, he is doing great. Ok, he needs to be more social with the other kids, but beyond that little snafu, its going well. He knows his numbers, letters, how to read and is making progress on addition. He loves going to school every day.
Which brings me to Bri. Let's start with the positive. She is quite bright and doing well overall. She is getting good marks in many classes. She's getting an A in religion. She loves to read. However, she got a D in reading and science on her progress report. All because she rushes throught assignments and doesn't have patience to get them done nicely. So she lost using my old laptop for her own websurfing (don't worry, I've made it so she can't get too far on the web.)
She also lost getting a book from the book order.
Hopefully, report cards will be better.
