As parents, we are extremely important to our children. What we say and do are noticed and absorbed into who they are, how they feel about themselves, and what they want to become.
They learn to navigate their world and make choices based on our relationship with them. This seminar will explore ways in which we can empower our kids to be the best they can be.

Wow! It’s an incredible time to put your home on the market.
Inventory in Almaden Valley continues to remain low this week. The number of single family properties currently on the market dropped from 61 last week to 58 this week, and the percentage under contract dropped from 53% to 50% over the same time frame.
Sellers who decide to put their homes on the market are frequently finding eager buyers hungry for new inventory. The high percentages of properties under contract indicates a high buyer interest in the limited inventory currently available, but sellers simply are not coming out to take advantage of the situation, disappointing buyers by the relatively small selection of homes to choose from.
Registration is now open for the 11th Annual / 2012 Math Enrichment Summer Program at Leland High School in Almaden Valley.

Buyers, however, continue to snap up properties, sometimes within days of them coming onto the market. The number of listings under contract increased dramatically from last week: 48% then to 53% today.
Inventory is increasing, and buyers are responding. The number of single family homes in Almaden Valley increased from 57 last week to 62 this week. The number of listings under contract had remained steadily between 47% and 48% for the past several weeks.
Become engrossed by Shakespeare’s Macbeth, a gripping tale of the tragic consequences of misguided ambition. Macbeth begins the tale as a heroic warrior returning from battle. As he succumbs to his irrational desire to become ruler through any means possible, the choices he makes result in his inevitable downfall.
Although Macbeth is both an agent and victim of malevolence, his keen insight and imagination allow him to observe the folly and torment of choosing evil over good. Even as he yields to his temptations to usurp the Scottish throne, he recognizes that violence will beget violence, and ultimately end in disaster.
