		<title>Why Special Ed?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every parent wants to think that their kid is gifted. And the truth is, every parent is right. We all have something unique and special about us. A particular area of interest, a specific skill that for whatever reason just comes naturally. The problem is that not all of our gifts and talents can be charted or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a presentation that was given by Dave Eggers on community oriented tutoring centers. He&#8217;s the author of A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius which, despite the tongue in cheek title, really is just that. Its also one of the funniest books I&#8217;ve ever read. Eggers is an incredible philanthropist and advocate for students [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ten Steps Behind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m stalling right now. I have a big paper that is due tomorrow night and I have totally hit a wall. So instead of researching and writing I&#8217;m cleaning windows, scrubbing baseboards&#8230;..blogging. This whole school thing isn&#8217;t coming quite as naturally as I would have hoped, and the lack of focus is making me edgy. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Memories</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, we&#8217;re back home and back to reality. I have 8-10 loads of laundry I need to do, 8-10 bills I need to pay, and an 8-10 page paper on balanced literacy I need to write. Grrrrr.
But as I try to see the bright side of the the &#8216;need to&#8217;s&#8217; going on right now, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beach Baby Beach Baby</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So we&#8217;re beach bound again this week. Chris is going to come with us this time and so is Nana. That means fun family time during the day and laid back couple time in the evenings!  Three cheers for two trips to the beach in one month and three cheers for Nanas! I have school [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mr. Nice Guy?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chris once had a boss with some extremely brash tendencies. Brash, in this case, is a nice word for jerk face. He was like the Gregory House of programming. He was a brilliant man who had virtually no patience for anyone whose thoughts so much as bordered on the mainstream. During a team meeting he [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beach Bloopers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The boys and I just got back from Gulf Shores. My parents made a last minute decision to rent a condo for a couple of days and they invited my sister and me to tag along. Unfortunately Chris had a big deadline at work this week so he wasn&#8217;t able to come with us. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Engineless Egotists!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
There are very few people groups for whom I feel genuine contempt.
Individuals, well sure. But groups, really very few.
However, first on this terribly short list is a group of people so diabolical, so horribly inconsiderate, so irritatingly selfish in their attempts as self maintenance, that I can barely speak their name without cringing&#8230;
Yes, that&#8217;s right. [...]]]></description>

		<title>On a Lazy Saturday Morning&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve had a couple of busy weekends in a row. So we are all feeling pretty thankful for an entire day with nothing on the calendar. So far the day has involved a little of this -

Which is a delicious crepe stuffed with grilled onions, bell peppers, artichoke hearts, black olives, pepper jack cheese, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Up a Creek</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Corbin is very into letter sounds lately, which is great because it gives me an opportunity to practice what I&#8217;m learning in my balanced literacy course. He has his &#8216;phonemes&#8217; (individual letter sounds) down, and he is now starting to  sound out actual words phonetically. I couldn&#8217;t be more proud, especially since the very first [...]]]></description>
