I'm Home!
I have resigned from the Auto Club and will be working from home a lot now. I am excited to be able to help get the girls ready for school in the mornings now (instead of burdening Jeff with that each day - he stresses over the smallest things). Hopefully Kara will have an improved attitude at school (she has gotten in trouble for back-talking to the teacher and had to be placed on a behavior contract). I don't get it - I was not that way when I was little. I did not dare make a peep out of turn at school and wanted so much to have the positive attention of my teacher.... I have no idea where Kara gets this attitude from (although Jeff told me he was on a behavior contract when he was in school too). Maybe it's part of a newer generation... all the kids in my Primary class seem so outspoken and opinionated. I had to force myself to be that way after I grew up. I didn't even dare complain when an order was wrong before. Maybe Kara's just learned it from the way I am now, who knows. I'm certainly not nice to strangers. I should have a bumper sticker that says "Mean Person". I'm not priding myself in this behavior, but I am not trying to cover up the truth either. Merely stating a fact - Ronnie and Jeff can attest to how mean I am to strangers. I have no patience or tolerance for slowness, incompetence, or stupidity. I have a long ways to go before I can die otherwise I will be in trouble. Patience is a virtue that I no longer possess (if I ever did, I've buried it and fully welcomed the age of instant access to everything).

No you were not that way at all. I was wondering where she gets it too, although Brooke got in trouble at school too, for not being nice to another little girl in her class. Brooke's stubborness is like you - and all my children, except Alisa. I don't know why. (She must take after my mom, sorry, the rest of you take after me) and I think you get the impatience from me... sorry. Mom
We love you Aubrey! No matter how you treat the strangers in your life, you are very kind to the people you know! I can sympathize, I was the same way Kara is, I thought that I knew more than I did and naturally I thought I was always right. Good luck--we love you! ~Ronnie
