yesterday i layed down the letter of the law with my girls. I held a meeting and didn't allow anyone to talk as I went over new changes, and old rules. I wasn't sure how they'd take it, especially when i had to point out individual problems... but it actually went very very well. I was pleased. I love when people receive my words well.

I had a long talk with J the other day about goals. It got pretty heated at one point, and we were both super frustrated. But neither of us went off the rack, and we were able to figure out what the real issue was. It was so nice to know that fights just aren't our thing. He also apologized to me for something he had said, and that made me instantly cool down. I love someone who can admit when they were wrong and be sincerely sorry for it. Even if it was hard for him ;)

The weather has been so lovely. We can sleep with our A/C 's on and be totally comfortable now. It's splendid.

A group of ILP teachers from another school came to visit us yesterday, and it was so nice to see some new faces around here.
