Sydnie and Chad. Two people in my life who keep me laughing. I am so lucky to not only love my job, but to be able to do it with two people I love with my whole heart. Ry and I just got back from our yearly venture to San Diego, Chad and some other friends went with us. At one point in the back seat of the car, Chad and I were crying we were laughing so hard. And Syd? Well, what can be said about Syd. Here is a conversation we had the other day. Me - "Syd, what are you doing next Thursay?" Syd - "What day of the week is that?" Yes folks, that's Syd. In a nutshell. I love them both!!!
I have many monkeys in my life. My family, friends and just people I love. My life is a monkey cage. And I love it!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Duncan - "There is a kid in my class who is part mexican, part irish and a little bit fairy."
RyLeigh - "Well, I believe the fairy part, but the mexican-irish thing sounds sketchy."
Student - "Mrs. Thorne, I am having surgery on my foot this week so I won't be able to dance for the dance audition. Is that okay?"
Me - "Um, how can I give you a dance score if you can't dance?"
Student - "Oh, right. That's a problem?"
Me - "Britton, is that your hand?"
Asked during a photo op in San Diego two weeks ago.
Mom to RyLeigh - "Whatever you and your sister are whispering about and planning you make sure you include your little brother."
RyLeigh, looking extremely confused, "You want me to give him a makeover?"
Duncan to Mom - "I just wiped my hand on your shirt."
Mom to Duncan - "What?!"
Duncan to Mom - "Hey, I'm your son. It's what kids do."
Duncan - "When I run around my uvula gets dry. It happens alot." Mom - "Hey Dunc, this week we need to spring clean your room. Get rid of stuff and organize."
Duncan - "Yeah, let's do. We can give it to the homely."
Mom - "The homely?"
Duncan - "Yeah, they got nothin'."
Duncan, to his Dad, on the way home from Valentine's dinner:
"There are too many girls in this family!!!"
"So, a red-head, a brunette and a blond walk to the top of this cliff . . ."
Duncan, telling this joke out of nowhere to my good friend Bonnie. ( I was so glad he didn't say, 'walk into a bar!'
On seeing Maddie, my student TA who takes Duncan to school for me every other Friday,
Maddie - "Duncan, come on, let's go."
Duncan - "Oh hey Maddie . . . Bad hair day, huh?"
Scene: Children 1, 2 and 3 all screaming at the same time. Mom enters room:
Mom "Holy S#@t! What is going on in here!"
Mom takes Kid 3 to van. Enters kitchen:
Kid 2 "We're in deep S#@t , aren't we Mom?"
Mom laughs so hard she can't stand up.
The end
In regards to a wedding reception held at her home:
"There are people I don't like. And they don't like me. Just don't come to my house."
Sandy, my cutest backyard neighbor
Duncan: "Dad, what's a slut?"
Ryan: "Someone who has lots of girlfriends."
Duncan, pondering for a moment, "I want to be a slut."
"Time changes things, so what was . . . isn't, and what is . . . soon won't be. Constant change is the only reality."
Sid Malwhed
"Unshaved legs are your only link to reality."
Return to Me
In regards to directing shows,
"What's the big deal. You say,'hey go stand over there. And you go stand over there. And make it look good."
RyLeigh Thorne
"People need love."
Abba
"You give what you can give, and it will be enough."
Mom Thorne

Those pictures turned out great. You have a beautiful family and I can't believe how old your kids are getting. It is making me feel old. Please tell them to stop growing. Thank you.
Andra, you have such a gorgeous family! I love the pictures and I can't believe Duncan is going to be 7 tomorrow!
The top one is my favorite. I can't help but feel like Duncan is looking directly into my soul when he looks at me (in real life, or in a picture). Tell that boy happy birthday from us. RyLeigh's picture is so beautiful. Amy looks... well... kind of naughty :).
