It seems absolutely ridiculous to expect a 6 year old to be able to read their own directions and write their own sentences in kindergarten especially when it's only half day! It really blows my mind to begin with, that across the country it's not all half day or all full day kindergarten. The kids who are stuck in half day are behind the full day kids from the start. The school systems are a mess. #kindergarten #schoolsinamerica #americanschools #education #school #6yearsold #sixyearold #whataworld #fix #thereason #becauseiloveyou #doittogether #fightingwithlife #thepositivepowermovement #nestsandburrows #newjerseyschools #mountolive #sandshore (at Budd Lake, New Jersey)

What @54pineapples is up to now! The beginning of my next knitting project - #Sandshore cardigan by #aliciaplummer. I stopped counting the number of times I frogged this and started over. Finally looked on #ravelry and some thoughtful knitter noted that there was a misprint in the directions! Smooth sailing (well, relatively smooth :-) since then. This will be a WIP for a long time! #sandshore #cardigan #ravelry #knitting #widn #wip #aliciaplummer #54pineapples
