Big Sister

By
Cassidy is an incredible big sister. When she walks into the room, Savvy lights up! She smiles and coos at her, following her with her whole body. Her head and eyes turn towards Cass' voice and her arms and legs wiggle with excitement. Cassidy likes to help with everything. This morning we gave Savvy a bath (thank you Auntie Ellie- we love the bath tub!) and Cass was so good with handling the soap and making her smile. Cassidy loves to help with dirty diapers! Amazing! I don't have to move. Cass brings all the diaper stuff in a basket, then throws everything away and puts the basket away.

Cassidy has had her diva moments. It's not all petunias and hydrangeas over here :-) She will say my name over and over again only to look at me blankly when I acknowledge her. And if Savvy has a tummy ache, suddenly so does Cassidy.  She has only wet her bed three nights though these past 10 weeks, so no real regression with the potty. Our big girl is doing great!

These are pics we took outside the day we went to the nature museum.

Anyway, she gets to watch limited amounts of Diego, Dora, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word World, etc and sometimes we throw in some Cosby Show for good measure. She'll pick two shows and watch one, 20 minute episode of each and then we call it good. Well tonight when she asked for a show, I told her she could watch one episode of her favorite after she cleaned her room. She went into her room and as she started putting toys away, she started playing with them. She'd go to put books away and start "reading" them. Twenty minutes later she'd start putting crayons away, then start drawing with them. Ten minutes later she'd start putting awa...

Dancing

By
Cassidy loves to dance. So far, any type of music gets her going! In this video we were cleaning the kitchen when she decided to break out. When she saw the camera she started saying cheese because she thought it was a real camera. I hope you can see it!

NASPA @ NOLA 2025

By
I am very excited to get to serve on the annual conference team for NASPA 26 in KC! As part of the planning team, we have several onsite meetings. One is at this year's conference to be in transition with this year's team. Several of my staff members were able to attend the conference as well. Below are some photos with friends and colleagues who I was so happy to reconnect with!  The rest are notes I took from a few sessions. I as going to delete them, then thought, y'all might be interested in some of the random things always on my mind and in process. Take a peek! Also, NASPA stands for National Association of Student Personnel Administrators. While there opportunities all year long to engage with different groups and regions, in person and online, the annual conference is the premier event where you can learn and hang out with over 6,500 of your peers in higher ed work!  Notes: The balance of crisis management and change management is ongoing. Rest is essential. Decisio...
