Through the traffic to the daughter's school to meet her third grade teacher. It would be so nice if the school had central air conditioning. It would also be great if the school didn't try and raise money by selling nuritionally void Market Day products. It's ironic when she brings home papers about the Food Pyramid and Market Day flyers for pre-processed food items.

The daughter, wife and I went out to the mall and the daughter was fitted for eye glasses. She can use them on the computer and for reading and if she wants to, she can where them all the time. She loves the frames and I personally think she looks like a 25 year old fashion designer. We just need to get her a show on Bravo TV and all will be complete!
In the back of my mind, her having to get glasses was something that has worried me for years. I'm afraid it will just enforce the stereotype of the brainy child. Daughter, don't read this until you're much older, okay?

The daughter had her first day of third grade today. Her BFF, who was in both first and second grade with her was not in her class and this was rough. But we think it will help her to grow.

My daughter come into work for a bit in the early evening and did a little artwork in MS Paint. In art and technology her class was studying painters and so she worked up her own version of a Piet Mondrian. Here is her painting along side Mondrian's Composition with Yellow, Blue, and Red, public domain from Wikipedia.
