Battery Failure, Murphy: one

Each day I have to talk to myself as I get into the driver's seat of my car. Trunk of surprises: check. Guitar: check. Cell phone: check. Camera: check. Now I've learned the hard way that I must work diligently to remember to make certain that both my phone and camera have been juiced up for the day's adventure..... AND that my memory card has some space on it. My camera batteries fizzled upon reaching the later portion of my morning @ Children's. I did have a battery charger along, so I got some pictures at the end of the morning, just nothing in the middle. So these smiles will have to represent the whole building.

Warming Up Those Wheels

We're just getting underway..... starting with the very familiar, "Wheels on the Bus" to get everyone comfortable with this stranger who has just descended into their community space. As Dr. Pam Schiller would have us remember: "TRUST is job one!" So I always get underway with a couple of universally, familiar-favorites. Once I have them captivated, feeling confident and comfortable, I can take them on an adventure into the unknown. That's when the real fun begins.
