Today I attended a show that was put on by the after school program my son attends. It was a nice show from all the grades that attend the program, he had to perform a dance with a partner. I think he did quite well, but then again I am very biased. Read more »
Pizza Party…
Let me start by telling you that I didn’t expect to be supplying pizza to 20 3rd graders. It all started when my son came home with some disappointing math grades, I tried everything to get him to bring his grades up but nothing seemed to be working. We studied, did flash cards, I even bought math books from Staples. I decided to try a little bribery… I told him if he could get two 100% grades on his tests in any major subject I would buy his whole class a pizza party. I knew he could do it if [...] Read more »

Tree Vault Project
It took some time to complete but I think it came out pretty nice. If you live in NYC you probably know what a tree vault is. Basically it is the piece of land between the curb and your sidewalk that the city usually plants a tree in. Well many years ago the tree that was there forever died and was taken down. The city never replaced the tree so I took it upon myself to do it with many different trees that could not stand up to the harsh winters and the salt the city throws on the streets.

How do you do nature?
Nature at it finest :) And a little bike riding for me… I must say that we had a great day and alot of fun in Van Cortlandt Park. When you are out there climbing rocks and hiking in the woods you feel as though you are a million miles away from the urban community that you are right smack in the center of. :) Phil Read more »
Toothfairy where are you?
Well today my sons second tooth fell out. I am still amazed since he is 7 years old and has only lost 2 teeth. My daughter lost a handfull of teeth by the time she was 6. I know this is not a big deal because everyone is different and grows at different stages. It is just very interesting to me to see the differences between two siblings. Anyway I hope the toothfairy comes and brings Michael some cold hard cash. :) Phil March 26th, 2006: Just as a followup, the toothfairy came and left $5.00! Whoot! :) Phil Read more »
