Butternut Squash

I roasted some butternut squash last night-first time trying it. I will not be afraid of squash again. I will try cooking it again but make it sweeter.

My sweet Sarah is 6 years old today! She is a wonderful daughter! No friend party this year, just dinner @ Sizzler with the family tonight. I went into her kindergarten class to share a poster (the one we made LAST YEAR for preschool), read her favorite story, Pinkalicious, and shared a treat, Swiss Rolls. Sarah is always willing to help. She is very nice to others, and sometimes a little cuddle bug. We love our Sarah!

February miles: 59 (only 6.2 outside.....Why do I spend soo much time on my treadmill?)
It should be more.....I need a good, long run, 8-10 miles, but I haven't had the desire or decent weather to. So, I better get that in before March 19th! Oh, excuse is I need new shoes too. ugg.

Ash is getting better at her reading. I go into her class two days a week to help her & the other students take reading tests. It was another good day for Ashley. She read a book, took a test, and passed it. (She told me she said a little prayer before the test. Good girl). Ashley isn't WAY behind in reading , but just on the border of needing help-she reads at a second grade level, but we are almost 3/4 of the year through. We (teacher, mom, Ash, & state) want it higher. Its coming! I have hope! Keep it up Ashley!

Sorry no new pix. I take plenty of pictures, just don't have a way to get the pictures off my memory card. One day-LOTS of postings & pictures!

Taxes will be filed soon. I love H&R Block & my mommy! We only have to pay the state $12, which is MUCH less than what we originally thought. Federal return-YUMMY---> Its good. I still make money on my 'business' (self employed child care provider). Thats good.
