I will start with a short piece of fiction.
Once upon a time Scatterbrained Mom went to a co-op planning meeting. All the moms were chattering about what to teach and what they wanted taught for the upcoming fall semester.
Scatterbrained Mom usually had a lot of ideas. She might even share her ideas once in awhile with the entire world wide web. But her ideas abanonded her when the other moms started brainstorming. And her brain. Well, it was empty.
But don't worry. Prepared Mom flew in to save the day; as she whipped printed pages out of her purse, she exclaimed, "Look what I brought!"
All the other moms oohed and ahhed. Scatterbrained Mom glanced at it. A list of co-op ideas: Amazing! Wonderful! "This is fantastic."
Prepared Mom squinted at Scatterbrained Mom with an accusing smile and explained, "It's from your blog."
The End.
Nothing to see here. Storytime is over. The moral might be something about getting more sleep. Or not being overcomitted. I wouldn't know. Not all stories must be morazlied; we can make room for a little twaddle, can't we?
Okay, I admit it. I think I have something in common with Scatterbrained Mom: we both enjoy teaching and creating ideas for classses.
Because of my affinity for co-op class ideas, I am hosting a link-up. Please add your co-op class ideas so other moms can easily find your blog posts. I will leave this open throughout the month of September. Unless I fail to remember it and leave it open indefinitely. But I won't forget.
*If you have mutliple posts about the same class, it would be best if you would add all of those links to ONE post on your own blog, then post that one link in the link-up below. Thanks!
