Max's 1st grade Halloween party *Oct 28th, 2010*

This was my first opportunity to volunteer at Max's new school. First my mom, Elese and I went to the Parade which is held outside and they walked up and down main street. It was a little bit chili. Then the plan, which had been explained to my mom SEVERAL times and even just seconds before she left, was for her to take Elese back to MY house while I helped with the party. When I returned home no one was there and she had gone to her house. My mom has always been forgetful but it seems to have gotten much worse over the last year or two. After driving to her house and barely making it back in time to pick Max up from school I made some calls to my brothers telling them about my concerns and to my niece that now lives with her to keep a close eye on her. She's seems to be doing better but that week she had been extra forgetful.



During the party I was in charge of the BINGO game that we called GHOST. It was fun to see Max interacting with the other kids in his class. I was happy to see that he is the same crazy, super hero obsessed kid at school that he is at school.
