| Kids and morning rush hour - Austin American-Statesman Posted: 16 Sep 2010 10:17 AM PDT Home > Mama Drama > Archives > 2010 > September > 16 > Entry If you've click on this blog expecting an analysis on Austin traffic, please go read my colleague Ben Wear's blog Short Cuts. For parents, the morning rush hour starts well before you stick the key in the car ignition. Getting my kids dressed and out the door to daycare/preschool often feels like one endless slog. Some days I honestly prefer being stuck on Mo Pac Boulevard for 45 minutes. At 3 years old, my daughter Ayanna is a master foot-dragger. I know that I cannot possibly expect her to dress herself start to finish, without parental intervention. She has the mechanical skills to do it, but her attention span means that if left to her own devices, she'd still be running around in underwear and socks hours later. I know there is an element of exploitation in our routine, which currently involves a parent telling her multiple times to get up, eat her breakfast, put on her socks, shirt, skirt, underwear, shoes. She knows that if a parent is dealing with Elizabeth or are in another room she has "time" to dawdle. Most of our goals are at odds with one another: We want her to dress herself. This takes time. If we institute timeout for failure to comply with requests to get dressed. That takes more time (the timeout, plus the time it takes for her to calm down over the punishment.) If we dress her quickly just to get her out the door — more bawling. Sometimes she'll move just enough to make you think she's getting dressed only to get distracted by a preschool-level dissertation on the color of her shirt. I feel badly for her. Getting woken up at 6:30 every morning sucks, even for me. Three year olds have no sense of urgency. She can't even tell time yet, so telling her that we are running late is like telling her the earth revolves around the sun. It has absolutely no meaning. We don't watch TV in the morning. That slows things down more. We've tried giving her deadlines (i.e. Get dressed before the clock says 7:15 and you can play a little) but that has had mixed results. She can count to 30, but I'm not sure she knows yet that the clock goes in chronological order. I know it's the age, but surely there is a way to speed this phase along. Of course, by the time we get Ayanna through it, we'll have to tackle it with Elizabeth — and have even earlier school start times to grapple with when Ayanna starts elementary school. What do you do to get your kids out the door?

| Shoes help kids get on their feet - Deseret News Posted: 15 Sep 2010 09:31 PM PDT Published: Wednesday, Sept. 15, 2010 10:34 p.m. MDT  Free Lunch MEXICAN HAT, San Juan County — He was wearing pink shoes. That's the first thing Wendy Sanborn noticed about the quiet second-grader with somber brown eyes. The boy did his best to hide his mom's vibrant hand-me-downs, wearing his frayed jeans low to cover the tops. Sanborn, who had come to the Navajo Indian Reservation to deliver dozens of new shoes to children whose feet had been measured months ago, approached the student gently. "You know, I think we just might have an extra pair in your size," she said with a warm smile. "Would you like to see them?" The boy eyed her cautiously and nodded. When Sanborn opened the shoe box and pulled out a pair of black skater sneakers, the child's sad expression quickly turned into one of delight. "He grabbed the shoes, put them on and was so excited, he couldn't speak," she recalls. "He just jumped up and down, then ran out of the room. He ran and ran in those new shoes. You could tell that he felt so good, he didn't want to stop." This fall marks the third year that Sanborn, 41, has coordinated the "Walk in Beauty" footwear giveaway for Park City's Adopt-a-Native-Elder Program. A longtime volunteer, she had noticed many children going without shoes during her trips to the reservation to deliver food and medical supplies to Navajo elders. Crushing poverty and a lack of jobs on the reservation force many parents to seek work elsewhere, leaving grandparents to raise the children, she says. They simply don't have an extra $20 or $30 to buy a pair of school shoes. "Every time we'd ask, 'What else can you use help with?' shoes for the grandkids kept coming up," says Sanborn. "So we decided to do something about it." Named after the Navajo principle of walking in beauty to seek harmony and balance, the charity will soon deliver 260 new pairs of shoes to children at a dozen schools in remote reaches of the reservation. Twice a year, teachers make a list of which students have the greatest need, then the children have their feet measured and are asked what color of shoes they'd like. "Every spring and fall, when we deliver the shoes, we're amazed at how much impact such a small gift can make," says Sanborn, who wanted to share the group's mission in Free Lunch, hoping to inspire others to contribute to the cause. "There are kids on the reservation who have never had anything that is theirs alone," she says. "Often, we'll see kids who share a pair of shoes with another sibling. One will wear the shoes one day, while the other will wear slippers. To provide each of them with their own pair is a powerful thing. Sometimes, you leave the school and cry."

| Tie Your Shoes, Kid: Denard Robinson Will Not Win The Heisman Trophy - Bleacherreport.com Posted: 15 Sep 2010 12:27 PM PDT  Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images We've seen what he can do on the football field. We've all seen the cuts, the speed, the dreads flowing in the air in midst of burning yet another secondary. I will admit, however, coming late to the party. However, I did have the luxury of watching Robinson light up the field and my Irish as he ran his way to 258 yards on two touchdowns. He single-handily (and I mean that) won Michigan their fourth game out of five against Notre Dame. Now, in result of his eye-popping (or eye-gouging depending on what fanbase you are loyal to) stats, Robinson's name has soared to the top of the Heisman list. All it took was two weeks, two wins, and two domination's for the next Michigan quarterback to be crowned the Savior. Let's take a step back to last season. Enter Tate Forcier. A freshman at the time, Forcier lead Michigan off to a fantastic start to the year with 4 straight wins and looking like the next big thing in Ann Arbor. Of course, I also had the displeasure of watching him lead his team to a victory over my Irish, just like Robinson did in 2010. Fast forward a year later. Forcier, now the third-string quarterback behind "Shoelace" and freshman Devin Gardner, is merely Rich Rodriguez's personal waterboy. Seen on the sidelines with his usual skullcap, clipboard, and hand warmers, Forcier knows what it's like to be given praise and have it taken back rather quickly. And with that said, he may be the most electrifying player in college football. He very well may prove many people wrong and go on to start all 12 games for Michigan this season, racking up better numbers week in and week out. However, if history proves correct, he won't be out there for every down and every game played. A quarterback who carries the ball 30 times a game, on top of being abused by opponent defenders on passing attempts, isn't going to last a full season in the Big Ten. With a skinny frame to build upon, Robinson would be lucky to weigh in at 190 drenched in Forcier's sideline water. His running style, relying on speed and elusiveness and not the brute strength of a Tim Tebow, calls for one big hit to put an end to all Heisman talk. The point here is this—just don't get your hopes up. Robinson can lead Michigan to victory in every game they play this year, but without him, this team is going to lose plenty of football games. So for now, and however long it lasts, enjoy the cuts, speed, and dreads. It might not be here come week six, and it certainty won't be there come time for the Heisman ceremony in the Big Apple.
