Hey kid,

Sorry I didn’t answer your snap last night, I fell asleep before I’d intended to. Hopefully you got enough rest, too. I had a lot of fun meeting up with you all after school yesterday, and despite teasing you about it, I’m glad y’all asked me along. Your chem project was fun, too. You didn’t say much about the game, but I’m hoping you had fun, regardless of any stupid dudes.

You’re gonna totally ace Farr’s test today, just review before class, and stay confident that you’re good on the material. Doesn’t look like the weather’s gonna be great today, so, make sure you dress warmly. Your therapist appointment is at 9:30 today, so, please don’t forget your paperwork, and go over it with her. She seemed really nice when I talked to her, so, hopefully the two of you will get along well as therapy gets more familiar. Make sure you’re always honest, and talk about your real concerns, even if they aren’t easy to talk about. Therapy only works if you’re totally upfront and honest, which I know you already know, as you’ve seen evidence of that firsthand.

The escape room is gonna be SO much fun, but I noticed a possible issue. It starts at 3:30, and, if you’re still with Mom, you’ll be picking Charlie up at that time. I’m going to try to find you a ride there from Fort, so, make sure you talk to mom. I’ve been reminding you since you left on Sunday to talk to her about this, and we could have had a better plan going into this if you’d remembered. I’ll talk to Coach about a ride, as I’m pretty sure she said she had one more spot. We can touch base throughout the day, to stay on top of it. :)

I hope you have an awesome day at school, and I’ll talk to you soon! I love you very, very much.

xoxo,

-Dad

Happy Monday, Phoebe!

Thank goodness this is a short week, and you don’t have school Friday! Next week will be even shorter, with parent conferences. I know homework’s gonna be rough this week, but please try to stay on it, you’re doing really well, and I know you can keep it up. I think if you can find a good homework spot at mom’s, and just knock it out right when you get home, you’ll be good to go. ;)

So, for Lou’s birthday… what if you gave her a coupon for you to paint her shoes, like you did with Charlie’s? Like, she could pick what she wanted, and you doing it could be part of her present? You could get artsy with the coupon, so it looked fancy. Then maybe you could make her a Spotify playlist? I can probably get the posterboard, but, I don’t know that mom will take you to get the pictures printed, especially if she knows they’re for Lou. :/ I’ll come up with some more ideas in the next day or two.

Don’t forget to remind Mom that it’s early release today! She probably knows, but, better safe than sorry, lol. I was wrong, and therapy isn’t today, but tomorrow, on Tuesday, so, you still have time to fill out the evaluation sheet. My guess is that you forgot it at home, so, let me know if I need to get it to you.

I hope you have an awesome day today! I already miss y’all lots, so, it’s gonna be a looooong week. more tomorow…

Love you tons,

-Dad

Hey Lady!

Today’s the day, I can’t wait to see you all tonight! I had fun chatting with you last night, and looking at old pictures. There are a ton more, but we’ll have to go through them a bit at a time, because, when I say a ton, I mean literally tens of thousands, maybe more.

I’m hoping you feel better this morning, and won’t have to struggle through school, sick tomorrow. The extra rest you got over the weekend probably did you some good, and should make feeling better easier. We’ll keep an eye on Thea and make sure she doesn’t get it, since I have a feeling it’s the same thing Charlie already had last week.

Here are the links to both playlists on Spotify, that have all of the songs-of-the-day in them. I’ll keep both updated for you, whenever they need added to. There’s one with just your songs, and one with all three of your’alls songs.

Please remember to pack all of your stuff, and go back through the checklist I asked you to make, to be sure you have everything. All your clothes, any school stuff, devices, chargers, cosmetics, etc.

I Love you so much, and I’'ll see you at 6pm!

Hi Kiddo!

I’m really glad your Friday went well, when you get your grade back fro your algebra II test re-take, I’m sure you’ll have nailed it! I know it’s been hard that you haven’t been allowed to hang out with Lou, but, am so happy that you were able to go to the movies with Holly last night. Sorry the movie wasn’t as good as you were hoping, especially considering it’s like THREE hours long, lol.

I’m a little worried about you being sick, and wish I could get some vitamin C and cough drops to you, did you ask Mom for some, like I’d suggested? I have some here, so, if you don’t get any today, you’ll have some for sure when you get home tomorrow. Just make sure you’re staying warm, and getting plenty of rest, even if that means naps. Historically, none of you kids tend to get sick very often, but, when and if you do, it almost always tends to be when the seasons change from Summer to Fall.

Are you allowed to talk to Lou, or, are you just not allowed to hang out with her? not sure if the two of you tried setting any plans up for this week. Maybe something after early release on Monday, or something? We’ll get it figured out. :)

I hope you get plenty of rest today, and take it easy so you can get better, faster. The entire album that today’s song-of-the-day is from, is right up your alley, and you might want to give the whole thing a listen. ;)

I miss you an awful lot, and can’t wait to see you tomorrow! There’ll be a new post in the morning!

Love,

Dad

Hey Sugar!

Happy Friday! School week is nearly over!

I’m sorry that Mom wouldn’t let me pick you up when she wasn’t able to take you to open house, but I’m glad it worked out so that you had a ride, and we got to do open house together, like every other year. All of your teachers this year are really awesome, but I’m sad Buell wasn’t there, as I haven’t seen her since last year, and love hearing her gush about how awesome you are, lol. Your chemistry teacher seems like a lot of fun, and your algebra II teacher is really, really sweet. You have a really good setup this year, and are doing a really great job. I don’t feel like I can say it too often, so, again, I’m really proud of you.

I think the extra help in algebra should make the difference on your retake today, so, make sure you knock out that test, you totally got this. Your therapist might show up today, so, keep an eye out. If not, Ms. Smith is just down the hall, if you need her. I met with her yesterday, and she’s there to bat for you, if you want.

I found out that there’s a “family playlist” in our Spotify. It’s really cool, it takes tracks from my playlists, and yours, and mixes them all together. It’s in the browse section or something, you just have to look for it, and join in. Speaking of playlists, I made one for all of the songs I’ve been sending y’all, and will get a link over to you in tomorrow morning’s post. <3

Have an awesome Friday, and I miss you a trillion majillion.

Love you!

-Dad

Hey kid!

I hope you’re ready for open house tonight! I’ll be there, as always, but, not sure I’ll see you, if you’re going with Mom, that’ll be up to her, I suppose. I’m really excited to meet your teachers, as the only one I already know is Buell. You did a really, really good job this year, of balancing classes that will benefit you, and that you’ll enjoy. I’m super proud of you for taking the more difficult path, and understanding that it’ll be more rewarding in the long run, even if it’s more work.

I know that Mom said that you’re not allowed to hang out with Lou while you’re there, so, maybe we can try to get something planned for when you get home, so you two can make up some time. I know it’s hard not getting to spend time with your best friend, and I’m sorry for that. let me know if you come up with anything, and we’ll do our best to make it work. :)

Do you remember the photo below? It highlights my only weakness as a parent. Hair, lol. I still need to learn how to French Braid. Do you remember your girl scout ball? We bought you a fancy dress, but, I didn’t know how to do your hair, so we went to the salon, and they trimmed and styled it for you. Charlie and Thea came along too, and they did each of their hairs, as well. The ball was a blast, I wish I had more pictures from it. <3

I hope today’s a great school day, I love and miss you very, very much!

Love,

-Dad

Pheebs!

I hope your week has been going awesome so far! I’m sad you won’t be at tumbling today, and hope you get feeling back up to it, soon. I think there’s a social element that you’re missing, and the outlet of the exercise. I’m not trying to push, just want you to remember that it’s there, and, that not going might make you feel worse, after a while. no rush, coach said to take as long as you need, but comp is coming up soon, and those are fun, team weekend trips, that I’d hate for you to miss out on. ;)

I still haven’t gotten a call back from the intervention specialist at Fort, so, you may want to check in with her, and follow-up? It turns out that the woman that visited on Friday was your therapist, so, there’s a chance that she may come back Friday, as that may be her day at the school. I sent a message to her, so that she’ll contact me, if we need to do any rescheduling, and so that we can get a handle on what the schedule actually is, so you know what to expect.

So, not everything for this song of the day artist is ood, but, this one reminds me a little of the Home track you showed me. I think you’ll like it. ;)

I miss you a whole, whole lot, and can’t wait for you to come home Sunday.

Love, Dad
