Sitting around talking to adults is nice though. And yes I know what you mean about begging for help. But here's something crazy I noticed - most that attended all had little ones for the most part. Maybe 2 or 3 had kids above 2nd grade. And maybe it will be a different story when mine are older too lol. ‘Enjoy’ is such a strong word LOL. Sitting around talking to adults is nice though.

Just eavesdropping filled me in on things that I didn't know what was going on. That and the fact that they were practically begging for help in different areas. That I felt was really sad. We're talking a group of moms (small at that) taking care of 6 grade levels and some have more than one class (for example, my daughter's fifth grade class was broken down into two classes). So, we're talking about how many students here? If each parent took the time to do ONE thing to help out the school, there would be no begging for help. Know what I mean? But, fess up Kara, you really are enjoying it too, aren't you? LOL! And that’s exactly what I’m thinking. Just eavesdropping filled me in on things that I didn’t know what was going on.

But I do recommend attending at least once, because it's interesting what you learn. As crazy as it is around here, I'm glad I'm involved! Yes you are crazy lol.

Get home from school, get homework done, get fed (yeah, which I know like you is often the hardest part, lol!)then go to practice (or whatever you have that particular night) get home, bathed and go to bed. It's like a nut house on a typical night here. Luckily, for the most part I still only have one with homework. I don't foresee too much yet with my little guy in first grade but I have a feeling by next year, that'll be another pressure. Eh, but we're having a great time doing it!! And as far as the PTO goes ... our is called the Home & School Association and I never got involved with ours. However, last year I did overhear one meeting (I was there for something else) and I hope to maybe try to jump in this year. Am I crazy or what?
