I have always wondered how things were different or the same from town to town. I love seeing how diverse our country is, not to mention the entire world. This project is a way to bring people together through photography, by taking a photograph each week of the “same” thing.
Each week there will…

Laura Loo, Loo, Boog, Lerr. My old friends and family still call me Laura Loo or Loo and my newer friends call me Lerr. It stemmed from the discussion that there is no “short” name for Laura. (Jessica has Jess, etc.). Lerr became my “short” name.

this is a hard quote for me to post. I admit freely that if I could I would take away Andrews autism. As a parent I would like to remove ANY roadblock from Andrews way, and so far Autism has been our biggest roadblock.

The meeting
I have a meeting tomorrow with the principal and the head of special education at Andrews school. I am very nervous. I am mostly going to encourage them NOT to hire the summer school teacher but to also impress upon them to hire someone with the proper experience to continue the inclusion piece of this program. I am not looking for someone to come in to make sweeping changes. I am going in trying...

I never knew
I never knew how strong I was
I never knew my propensity for love
I never knew the heartache I’d see
I never knew the fear I’d feel
I never knew
now I do
For every cloud there is a lining
For every test failing isn’t always failing
For every heartache there is a joyful heart
For every fear there is a triumph
Autism isn’t all he is or all that we are
It just is

I am including Mr. departmenthead in on this email, because he supervises and coordinates all of our District Special Education classes. We would be willing to receive your input so that we can keep it in mind while we select candidates for the position. I know that he will join me in thanking you for your involvement and support for the program. Did you want to compose your ideas and send...
Here is the note I sent to the principal
Mrs. Andrewsteacher contacted me today to let me know she will be leaving the classroom in October. This is a tremendous loss to the program as Mrs. Andrewsteacher is one of the best teachers I have had the good fortune to work with. Andrew really loves her class. Since this means you will be hiring a new teacher for the classroom I would like to know if any parental input would be taken. I...
