		<description><![CDATA[We are 25 minutes away from finishing the last Monday of the 2011/2012 school year. As always, it seems that the first day of school was simultaneously eons ago and yesterday.

		<description><![CDATA[I just did a calendar check. Looks like there&#8217;s only 6 more weeks of school to go. Time to ponder summer plans and swimming holes and camps and craft projects and all the other things we can do with the long stretching hours of school-less days. And time too to check in with your child&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
