Our Passport Photo
So here's a few questions:
- Do we all look a little stoned?
- Did I really wear those glasses?
- Is that really Kellie or did I borrow a different baby?
- Was I ever that young?
- It looks like my hair was styled to match the direction of the glasses.
- A Peter Pan collar - seriously.

Grammar 101
I am on a campaign to make sure the world knows the difference between its and it's. What better place to start than the blog?
It's pretty simple. If you see an apostrophe, substitute the word is - as in it IS pretty simple. It's is a contraction that stands for it is or it has.
So if you are writing the sentence:
The horse galloped by, it's tail flowing in the wind.
and you read it substituting the word is for the apostrophe you end up with:
The horse galloped by, it is tail flowing in the wind.
It's then apparent you do not use the apostrophe but should use the word its.
The horse galloped by, its tail flowing in the wind.
Got it? It's important! Next up is there, their and they're.

I Can Hear Sting
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold.
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold.
