community gathers for JACKSON ROOS MEMORIAL, FUNERAL

Crowd lights candles, shares memories Family and friends fill Hartman Park to honor Jackson Roos Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

Cars lined the streets atop Education Hill Monday evening as hundreds of people made their way to the baseball fields of Hartman Park.

But instead of visiting the park to enjoy a game, they were there for a memorial event to honor and celebrate the life of Jackson Roos, the 12-year-old boy who died in a zip-line accident in his family’s back yard near Redmond last Wednesday.

Jackson’s father Bryan Roos spoke briefly during the event and said he and his family were astonished by the outpouring support from the community and everyone’s offers to help during this difficult time — especially as they could not think about anything beyond how Jackson’s death affected the family personally.

“We are so humbled and overwhelmed at the overall community outreach to us…

We are all one big family,” Bryan told the crowd.

While the Roos family was humbled by the turnout for their son’s memorial, family friend Erik Oh was not surprised.

“It was breathtaking, but I wouldn’t expect anything less,” Oh said. “(Jackson) deserved this. People loved him.”

He added that so many people attended the memorial not just because Jackson’s death was a horrible thing to happen, but also because they

Oh, who also spoke during the event, said he and his family have spent a lot of time with the Roos family and Jackson always made sure to watch out for Oh’s three kids — the oldest of which is 6 — and went out of his way to spend time with them, despite the six-plus years age difference.

“He was awesome,” Oh said.

Monday’s memorial event was planned to give the community’s youth an opportunity to celebrate their friend’s life, but individuals of all ages attended to say goodbye.

Theresa Cranston never knew Jackson personally, but said her daughter had been a classmate at Emily Dickinson Elementary School before they moved to the Northshore School District. Cranston said

her daughter and her daughter’s friends were distraught when they heard the news of Jackson’s death on Wednesday and things were very quiet and subdued at that evening’s soccer practice.

In addition to Bryan and Oh speaking at the memorial, one of Jackson’s former classmates sang Avril Lavigne’s “Keep

Holding On.” The song’s lyrics, “Nothing’s gonna change destiny/Whatever’s meant to be will work out perfectly…

Keep holding on/’Cause you know we’ll make it through,” reflected Jackson and his family’s outlook on life. “(Jackson) believed that family is eternal,” Oh said.

Jackson Roos was a competitive boy who loved to play baseball. And the 12-year-old pitcher was joyously proud of himself when he made the Redmond North Little League All-Star team last summer, said his father, Bryan Roos.

Speaking at his son’s funeral service Tuesday morning at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Stake Center in Redmond, Bryan noted that coaches told him that Jackson was a good player, friend and an inspiration to his teammates. [ more roos page 3]

“Good kids make good people on and off the field,” Bryan told the hundreds of people who attended the service for Jackson, who died in a zip-line accident last Wednesday in the family’s back yard near Redmond.

“I take solace to know Jackson was clean, pure and without malice,” added Bryan, who owns Roos Orthodontics in Redmond. “He truly was amazed by the world and what it had to offer him.”

Members of Jackson’s baseball team were in attendance at the funeral, as well, all wearing their uniforms. Last weekend, some of the players hit memorial baseballs for Jackson into a nearby lake adjacent to where his grandparents live and where the avid wakeboarder spent a lot of time.

Jackson’s uncle, Brett Clark, briefly donned a baseball glove while speaking to the crowd and said, “When you’ve got your hand in your glove, you can do all kinds of wonderful things.”

“Because of Jackson’s many qualities in his 12 years, I am trying to be a better person.”

Patty Folkman, grandmother

Jackson also enjoyed scouting, mowing the family’s large lawn for $10 each time, fishing, playing soccer and basketball, spending quality time with his family and friends and participating in church services.

“He was naturally and instinctively kind,” uncle Gary Folkman said during his eulogy.

Folkman noted that Jackson received that trait from his parents, Bryan and Julie, who graciously thanked the Redmond Fire Department first-responders at the funeral for attending to Jackson on the day of the accident.

“You did not give up on my boy; you did everything you could and more,” she said.

Grandmother Patty Folkman said that a friend once told her that Jackson always included that man’s boys in sports activities.

“If I was little, I would have wanted to be picked

on his team,” Patty said.

She added that her grandson was sweet, obedient, cheerful and forgiving and “because of Jackson’s many qualities in his 12 years, I am trying to be a better person.”

Recently, Jackson gave a talk at church about being friendly to everyone, Patty said. Family friend Jeff Hansen noted that “when it came to being a friend, he made it count” and he asked funeral attendees to share his “zest for life” by being kind to people.

To the young people in the crowd, Hansen encouraged them to start paving their paths to be upstanding men and women.

Looking back to last Wednesday, Julie Roos said that Jackson spent an extra 10 minutes in the morning saying his prayers in his room, and then the family said a prayer together at breakfast.

Filled with emotion, Bryan Roos said, “The last words I said to Jackson were, ‘I love you,’ and he said he loved me back.”

Feeling like a part of the Redmond community This month marks my two-year anniversary with the Redmond Reporter and during my time here, one thing that has always struck me about this community has been just that: community.

From elected officials and business owners to residents and schools, everyone takes an active interest in making the City of Redmond the best place to live, work and play. People look out for each other and take care of their neighbors and if you happened to be around Hartman Park Monday evening, you would have witnessed this firsthand.

Hundreds of people filled the baseball field for a public memorial for Jackson Roos, the 12-year-old boy who died last week in a zip-lining accident.

I never met Jackson and don’t know the Roos family, but I was still touched by this show of support. And as touching as this was, I wasn’t surprised.

This is just what you do, Redmond.

If you hear about a tragic event that has happened in town, you don’t just shake your head sadly and comment on how unfortunate it is. You ask what you can do to help and then you come together and do it.

ten stories about student and community groups participating in food drives for local food banks, individuals organizing fund-raisers for various causes, neighborhoods and schools providing dinners for families in crisis and too distracted to cook and more. In addition, I often get phone calls or emails from people who hear about these efforts and ask how they can get involved.

I didn’t grow up in Redmond and honestly didn’t know much about the city until I started working here. But since my arrival, I have felt nothing but a warm welcome into a community that takes care of its own. And in two years, I feel very privileged

to be part of it. While covering everything from school events and groundbreaking ceremonies to City Council meetings and Derby Days, I have met many people along the way and it always makes me smile when I see them again — whether at another event in town or in line at a local cafe — and they remember me. It feels good to be more than just a byline.

With such a strong sense of community, I’ll admit that it can be difficult to maintain objectivity as a journalist. But I’ve got to say, this is not the worse type of bias to have.

Regarding the recent front-page photo and article about Redmond’s enforcement of the crosswalk law: Is Redmond’s protection of pedestrians as half-hearted as the paint job of the crosswalk in the photo? There are a number of areas in the city that have crosswalks in need of re-striping and the last two months of dry weather would have seemed to be a perfect time. In addition, there is a crosswalk entering into downtown’s Anderson Park that was obliterated by utility work last summer. Over a year later, there is only half a crosswalk and then it stops.

Pedestrians are often an afterthought in city planning or given no thought at all. How else can you explain two blocks of closed sidewalks right across the street from City Hall? Why allow that public space to be a place where builders can park their construction trailers and equipment? As this nice town becomes more urbanized, we need to study other cities to see how they accommodate both pedestrians and builders (covered walkways?).

If you stand on the corner opposite The Matador restaurant and look either direction, you will see two different blocks where the sidewalks are closed with cyclone construction fences. At one corner, the sidewalks are closed on both sides of the street leaving the walker no choice but to walk in the street.

Redmond is a great place to work and play. A little more attention to foot traffic flow is probably in order.

Drivers need to pay close attention to pedestrians Every intersection in Washington state is a crosswalk, whether it is marked or not. Pedestrians have the

right-of-way over vehicles in every intersection, even if there are no white crosswalk markings drawn on the street. While walking in my Education Hill neighborhood, many hundreds or even thousands of cars have failed to properly stop for me at intersections. When you are driving, please stop when you see a pedestrian waiting at the corner to cross the street. Thanks!

Referendum 74: ‘Consider the rights of our children’ In last month’s Reporter, Rev. Lois Van Leer asked voters to approve Referendum 74 and legalize samesex marriages. Rev. Van Leer claims that approving this referendum is the “loving” thing to do. I disagree.

Same-sex couples say that they have the right to commit to the person they love and that their commitment should be called “marriage,” indistinguishable from “traditional” marriage (marriage between one man and one woman). At its root, the problem with calling these two relationships “the same” is that they are not. Though an argument can be made that samesex love and commitment is equal to heterosexual love and commitment, marriage is more than love and commitment: it is the beginning of a family unit whereby children enter in.

A traditional marriage family unit offers something unique to any child that joins it: a parental relationship both with someone who is the same gender and someone who is the opposite gender of the child. A same-sex partnership, no matter how much in love or how committed, cannot offer this to children. In this regard, it is not “the same.”

I recognize that due to death, divorce and other circumstances, many children are raised in single-parent homes. But I do not know any child who is raised without a mother or father in their home who would call it “the same.”

Children have an intense need for both a mother and a father. Much research has been done in recent decades which shows the significance of a father’s role in the life of a child. According to the Department of U.S. Health and Human Services, children with fathers in their lives are more secure, better able to deal with their emotions, and are less likely to become depressed than children without fathers (www.childwelfare.gov.)

Are we as a society going reject the conclusions of this research and call a home with two mothers “the same” as a home with a mother and a father?

Approving Referendum 74 is not the “loving” thing to do because the role of motherhood and the role of fatherhood are each significant in the lives of sons and daughters. This debate is not just about adult civil rights; it is also about the rights of children. In parenting, gender is significant and the democracy of children know it. Mothers cannot be fathers and fathers cannot be mothers. Marriage between one man and one women offers children both a mother and a father and this is reason enough to keep it distinct from any other union.

Rather than calling domestic partnerships “marriage,” let us be willing to add more rights to the current domestic partnership law. If same-sex couples would like the right to a legal name change, the right to a military burial next to one another, the right to federal social security, or any other rights that pertain to their relationship as adults, I would not be opposed.

But let’s not call a same-sex legal union marriage.

I ask you to consider the rights of our children and continue to define marriage as the legal commitment between one man and one woman: Vote no on Referandum 74.

Einstein Elementary students embrace Walk-to-School Day

Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

The cooler weather that signifies autumn’s arrival was not enough to stop families from Albert Einstein Elementary School in Redmond from participating in the school’s second annual Walk-toSchool Day Wednesday morning.

Crowds of students and parents alike lined Northeast 116th Street as they hustled to arrive before

the morning bell — and get out of the cold.

With a city-wide push to be more green and environmentally friendly, principal Melissa Pointer said Walk-to-School Day is a way for them to do their part.

Third-grader Grace Haegele agreed.

“It saves a lot of gas,” she said.

Grace said her mother usually drives her to school, but the two walked to school on

Wednesday and they really enjoyed it.

Mother Kari Haegele said they couldn’t walk the whole way because they live too far from Einstein and their neighborhood doesn’t have sidewalks, so they parked at PCC Natural Markets at 11435 Avondale Rd. N.E. and walked from there.

Pointer said many Einstein students live too far from the school to walk the whole way, so the PTSA contacted PCC

school’s presence and that they should be more cautious when driving while children are present.

In addition to Pointer welcoming everyone to school Wednesday morning, Redmond Mayor John Marchione was also on campus to greet and introduce himself to students, saying he was the “principal of the city” when explaining to the younger students what his job is. Marchione also handed out special hats and blinkers to the students to mark the

occasion. This was his first time doing this at Einstein but said he had done something similar at another Redmond school a few years ago.

“Walking has many benefits,” Marchione said.

“We’d all be healthier if we all walked 15 minutes a day.”

He said his kids walked to school when they were in junior high and high school and it was a good way for them to learn how to be self reliant and responsible for their own timeliness.

to make sure it was OK for people to park at the store, which it was.

“They are so generous to our school in so many ways,” Pointer said about the store.

The distance from PCC to Einstein is a little less than a half mile and Haegele said it was only about a five-minute walk, but most of the walk was uphill.

She added that the walk was quite brisk with the cooler temperatures and that walking to school — even if only part of the way — is something she can see them doing in warmer weather.

In response, Grace pointed out that they had that opportunity earlier this year.

“We could’ve done it the first week of school,” she told her mother.

Haegele added that Walk-to-School Day is also a great way to build community as she had the opportunity to speak with other parents as she normally wouldn’t be able to do this if she were in her car. She said it was also a good way to remind the community of the

Superintendent, parents discuss Rosa Parks overcrowding Andy Nystrom anystrom@redmond-reporter.com

Dr. Traci Pierce had barely put the microphone down and stepped off the stage when a group of parents surrounded the new Lake Washington School District superintendent to discuss overcrowding at Rosa Parks Elementary School.

It was feedback time

at last Thursday Ridge school is 11 night’s community percent over capacmeeting that drew ity at 793 students, about 150 people the highest number to Rosa Parks, and in the district. The it was as if Pierce purpose of the was a coach and meeting was to disthe parents were cuss a long-range Dr. Traci Pierce players asking the plan for Rosa Parks superintendent and seek feedback about her game on some potential plan. short-term solutions that Presently, the Redmond could be implemented

beginning in the 2013-14 school year.

Pierce fielded questions mainly about two short-term options under consideration: two grade levels temporarily moving to another school for the next two years and a temporary boundary that would move some students to another school for the next three years.

While Pierce spoke with some parents, others wrote down their thoughts on forms that school district members passed out.

“I spoke to a good number of people who asked very good questions, who all are very concerned about their students. Everyone’s very thoughtful, very respectful,” Pierce said after the meeting. “It was a very positive experience. The parents here love this school, and rightly so. They’re supportive of the school district.

I think people understand that it’s a difficult situation and that we’re all going to work together to figure out what to do about it.”

Also on people’s minds was an upcoming bond,

which the school district plans to run in February 2014. If the bond passes, they plan to build a new elementary school on property they own in Redmond Ridge East. If it doesn’t pass, they will complete a comprehensive district-wide re-boundary process.

Julie Chicoine, a mother to first- and fourth-graders at Rosa Parks, said she’d like to see some students moved to another school, possibly Laura Ingalls Wilder, which currently houses 343 students and is 38 percent under capacity.

“It’s a busy school. Kids have to eat in their classroom, so we need a solution for the overcrowding — it’s way too (many) kids in that school,” Chicoine said of Rosa Parks. “We all take our kids’ education very seriously.”

Karen Swenson, who has a second-grader at Rosa Parks, said grade shifting will split families apart and make it hard for parents to arrange drop-offs and pick-ups and get involved in PTAs. “Just the whole commu-

nication of what is going on at each school — it just becomes a logistical nightmare for parents,” said Karen, who also has a sixth-grader at Evergreen Middle School.

Ram Thiru, who has a first-grader at Rosa Parks, added that he’s heard of Redmond Ridge parents discussing that Redmond Ridge East students shouldn’t be attending Rosa Parks because that adds to the overcrowding problem.

“The thing that I’m worried about is creating a boundary that separates Redmond Ridge and Redmond Ridge East. I think it will create a rift between the neighborhoods,” Thiru said.

He’s asking the school district to consider moving the two grade levels out of Rosa Parks.

“I think that’s the best for everybody, so that way you get a mix of both neighborhood kids so you don’t create a separation,” Thiru said.

“The community has a lot of things in common and I don’t think we should create a division between communities.”

‘These kids cannot be drinking and having guns,’ mother says Benveniste, whose daughter was shot and killed at a Redmond party last February, discusses the tragedy and its aftermath. Police, residents focus on community safety.

your chair three years ago and look what I did — I’m stupid, here’s why… It’s not cool to drink, it’s not cool to sling a gun, it’s not cool to be this guy that gets you in prison.’”

For 18 months after his release, the documents say, De Jong IV cannot possess or consume alcoholic beverages or non-prescription drugs and must enter and complete alcohol- and substance-abuse treatment.

If De Jong IV violates these terms, he may face an additional penalty, the documents note.

GUN SAFETY

anystrom@redmond-reporter.com

Redmond Police Department Community Outreach Facilitator Jim Bove said that since the shooting, Cathy Peters, who resides on Education Hill — where the crime occurred — resurrected that area’s neighborhood watch program. Bove had a meeting with about 35 families from that neighborhood and they discussed safety tips, getting ahold of the police if another violent incident should take place and “the importance of looking out for one another,” he said.

“Usually people are a lot more interested in circling the wagons as a community when something like this goes on,” said Bove.

Gun safety has also come to the forefront following the shooting.

“So many people have handguns, and it’s their right,” Bove said. “Hopefully, they’re smart in their handling of them — not being careless with it. It’s not a toy, which this case proves that.”

Added Benveniste: “What I really would like to see is the law changed around concealed-weapon permits, and that’s something that I want to take on. I’m still working on getting the strength back to do that; for me, getting my youngest daughter to college was a big deal.”

She feels that nobody should receive a concealedgun permit if they’ve had a prior run-in with the law regarding alcohol. De Jong IV’s criminal history shows five misdemeanors from November 2008 through February 2010 for driving under the influence, minor in possession and/or consumption

Eight months after Claire Thompson, a 20-year-old Sammamish native, was fatally shot at a Redmond house party, Diane Benveniste gathered with her husband, son and her deceased daughter’s friends in a room at the King County Courthouse in Seattle.

They watched as 22-yearold Cornelius De Jong IV of Redmond pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter on Sept. 17 and was sentenced to 27 months in prison.

“I’m still wounded so it’s hard for me to talk about it,” Benveniste said last week.

“It was an accident and I understand that, but the bottom line is — and this goes to community education — these kids cannot be drinking and having guns. It’s the same thing as drinking and driving; we don’t teach them about drinking and guns, but we should.”

The recent shooting threat at Skyline High in Sammamish also affected Benveniste, who feels that kids need to look inside themselves, feel they’re not superior to anyone else, stop bullying others and get along with others.

“It’s such a weird thing that’s going on in my heart right now,” said Benveniste.

She knows that Thompson would be right beside her with those thoughts of caring for others.

“She was the kindest person there ever was. She took care of kids, she babysat special-needs kids, she was the girl you’d want to have around your kids — and I want more people to be like her,” Benveniste said.

NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH

Claire Thompson, 20, died from a gunshot wound at a Redmond party on Education Hill last February. Courtesy photo of alcohol and driving with a suspended license.

According to King County Prosecutor’s Office charging papers released in February, police said De Jong IV acted recklessly when he fired what he thought was an unloaded gun through a wall and struck Thompson in the neck on Feb. 12. The charging papers said De Jong appeared drunk after the incident and refused a breath test.

SENTENCING

De Jong IV, who pleaded not guilty to first-degree manslaughter in February, has already served five months jail time, which will count toward the Sept. 17 sentence, said Dan Donohoe of the King County Prosecutor’s Office. He was originally held at the King County Jail in Seattle and was moved to the Washington Corrections Center in Shelton on Sept. 21, according to the Department of Corrections Office.

Thompson’s parents weighed in on the sentence, gave recommendations and concurred with the idea of reducing the charge.

Benveniste, however, was surprised that De Jong

IV’s parents weren’t at the sentencing to hear Thompson’s family speak about the tragedy and its aftermath.

“I didn’t want him in jail for a long time. It was an accident, he’s somebody’s son — I have a son the same age,” said Benveniste, who noted that De Jong IV received his GED (General Education Development) certificate while in jail. “It could happen to anybody, but what just can’t happen to anybody is the carelessness behind it. Kids need to learn early that you can’t be careless; it’s a privilege to have a gun, it’s not your entitlement and that’s the challenge.”

According to current court documents, De Jong IV’s plea deal for the lesser second-degree manslaughter charge notes that within 30 days after his release he must contact the Redmond High principal to arrange to speak with students about the incident and how it’s affected him and others.

“By the time he does this, he’s going to be a man,” Benveniste said about talking to Redmond High students.

“He’s still a boy in my mind, but he needs to talk to these kids peer to peer, if you will, (and say) ‘Hey, I was in

Over on Education Hill, resident Paige Norman said everyone was shocked about the shooting, even though the house where it took place was the site of numerous problems involving police and aid cars over the years, she and Bove said.

“There were a lot of questions by the neighbors as to what the police were going to do about it, what we as a neighborhood could do to prevent it from ever happening again,” said Norman, who has lived on Education Hill since 1987. “The answer

to all of those questions is just basically be aware of people that don’t belong in our neighborhood and get to know our neighbors better.

We were a fairly friendly neighborhood to begin with, but it’s brought us just that much closer again.”

The group of neighbors arranged a potluck dinner during National Night Out on Aug. 7, a day designed to heighten crime- and drugprevention awareness and strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships.

Since the shooting, the family who owned the house moved and put it up for sale (it hasn’t sold yet), and Norman said she and her neighbors feel safer and relieved with that scenario.

Norman said neighbors were watchful about the goings-on in their area before, but now they keep tabs on what’s happening around them even more.

“Nobody wants to be that nosy neighbor that’s calling in on your neighbor every 10 seconds because something’s going on,” Norman said. “In this case (the shooting), we probably should have called a little bit more often.”

To help with her outreach to teens, Gailey plans to combine poetry with mediums they are more familiar with, which is why Saturday’s reading will also feature an anime-inspired art exhibit by her friend Michaela Eaves. Gailey said Eaves’ artwork will reflect the themes and content of the poems she will be reading.

In addition, Gailey said she wants to highlight the area’s diverse population and hold cross-cultural events to expose people to poets from other countries

ARE ANTIBIOTICS NECESSARY BEFORE DENTAL PROCEDURES?

If you have heard that it was necessary to take antibiotics before undergoing dental procedures such as cleanings and extractions, the recommendation is largely outdated. In the past, antibiotics were recommended for patients with defective heart valves or artificial joints in the belief that the drugs would fight bacteria entering the bloodstream during dental procedures. However, this precaution has since been deemed to be unnecessary because the risk of infection among this group of individuals is small and most likely outweighed by the risks (resistance and reactions) of taking antibiotics. Antibiotics are recommended for those with compromised immunity or increased susceptibility to infection (artificial-joint complications, prosthetic heart valves, or previous endocarditis, which is infection of the heart’s lining). Antibiotic resistance is a very serious problem caused by the overuse of antibiotics. Needless use of these drugs has led to the development of bacteria that require ever more powerful drugs to kill them.

It is important to take all of the antibiotics that have been prescribed, even after you start to feel better. At NW FAMILY and SPORTS DENTISTRY, you can expect us to give you gentle, comforting care using the most up-to-date techniques and equipment. We’re located in the Forest Office Park, Building F, at 14655 Bel-Red Road, Suite 101, near the Microsoft Main Campus in Bellevue, where our trained professional staff works as a team to make your visits pleasant.

Celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month Komen for the Cure ‘treats’ survivors

By Linda Ball Special to Sound Publishing

S

o many women, all with different stories, but bound with a common thread. Breast cancer. Two very scary words to anyone on the receiving end of the statement, “It’s cancer.”

Seated next to her at the table was her neighbor, Molly, who was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer after a normal mammogram. “You think you get a mammogram and you’re good to go,” Molly said. Not so.

Others at the table told of the aftermath of some treatments that caused lymphedema, swelling of the lymph glands that can be painful and delay further treatment or reconstruction. Patti of Tacoma sought the care of a naturopath to help her through One in eight women will get breast cancer, so look around you — at your treatment. Patti’s friend, Julie, also of Tacoma, had a lumpectomy followed mother, wife, sisters, girlfriends — one of these ladies you love will be on by radiation six months ago. So far, so the receiving end of this terrible news. good.

But for one day, Susan G. Komen for After the lunch, we were ushered to the Cure, made a shipload of survithe Oosterdam’s large auditorium, vors feel special and honored. For a where a waiter greeted us with a fifth year, Holland American Line choice of pink champagne or pink hosted a luncheon and program for lemonade for the program. It was survivors on board the beautiful ship, humbling to see all of these women the Oosterdam, while she was in the — all of these survivors, even a few Port of Seattle. men (yes, men can get breast cancer) in one place — a sea of pink! Cheryl The excitement was palpable as the Shaw, executive director of Komen survivors boarded the 1,000-footPuget Sound, herself a survivor, fought long, world-class luxury vessel. It back tears as she addressed the crowd, was a crisp, sunny September day. admonishing them never to give up.

Uniformed staff tended to our every need. The luncheon was haute cuisine. “We need more survivors — you’re all indeed my sisters, whether you know Wine was served. Dessert was a it or not,” she said. decadent chocolate tort. As a breast cancer survivor myself, I welcomed the chance to share stories with those who knew exactly what I had gone through. At the table, we talked and laughed like we were old friends — already members of the sisterhood.

Brigitte, from Everett, was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer nine years ago. She was told she had six months to live. “I never once thought cancer,” she said. She got a second opinion, different treatment, and she’s still here today, although she is living with advanced bone cancer now. She looks good. The loving support of her husband has sustained her, she said.

Shaw acknowledged that this has been a difficult year for the Komen organization. But she reminded the women that Komen is the largest private funder of mammograms in the state.

Next, Oosterdam Captain, Arjen Van der Loo himself, welcomed the crowd.

Guests of his ship have raised $3 million for Komen over the past five years by doing a 5K walk around the deck, he said. With that, a Vegas-worthy show began, filled with song, dance and fabulous costumes by entertainers who performed on their day off. We disembarked into the sunshine, feeling stronger, lighter.

How Parents Can Help

1. You can help your child feel more independently by giving him/her food choices.

They can be simple, inexpensive and easy to prepare. Cut up raw vegetables and fruits, cooked vegetables, cheese cubes, cooked and cooled pasta are easy and appetizing choices for preschoolers.

2. Take your preschooler to the grocery store. Involve your child by allowing him/ her to shop for groceries with you. Children love to help look and find items in the store. You may ask your preschooler to help count the oranges in your bag or ask your child to help choose something green to take home and eat. Involving

9. Turn the television off during mealtimes! Children are often easily distracted and may forget to finish eating if the TV is on.

10. Children eat more when they are feeling calm.

Take a few minutes to rest before eating. Choking on food can happen when children are lying down, running, jumping playing, laughing or crying.

11. Keep meal conversation pleasant. Choose a topic other than food if your preschooler is reluctant to eat, you may find that your child may forget not to eat and may start nibbling.

12. Make sure your preschooler gets plenty of physical activity, preferably outside to help increase a healthy appetite.

13. Offer snacks that are low in sugar, high in protein and carbohydrates between meals. Limit sugary snacks that may affect a child’s ability to concentrate and snacks containing unhealthy trans fats.

Kids’ screen time: How much is too much?

viewing room

Preschoolers have reached a time in their development where they like to do things for themselves and if shown correctly can be very capable. As preschoolers tend to be more willing to cooperate with mom, dad and other caretakers than when they were toddlers, it is a wonderful opportunity to teach about healthy foods, a balanced diet and to model good eating habits and table manners.

A variety of nutritious foods provide a child with the nutrition needed for healthy development and growth. A balanced diet and plenty of playing helps a child to maintain a healthy weight. Proper nutrition gives a child energy for learning and playing. Children go through many stages as they grow and their eating habits are often affected by these stages.

It is not unusual for

your child in the process of grocery shopping can be an enjoyable experience with many learning opportunities.

(Well-rested and fed children make better shopping companions!)

3. Foods that children can eat with their fingers help independence. Cut foods into small bite size pieces.

4. Never force-feed a child.

Preschool children should learn how to feed themselves, either with their fingers or by practicing using child-sized utensils.

5. Do not force a child to eat a disliked food or to eat when not hungry.

6. Don’t overwhelm your child with large portions.

A variety of foods in small portions are much more appealing.

7. Children learn eating habits by watching others, and are more likely to try a new food if mom and dad are enjoying it, too. Add new foods to your child’s plate regularly to increase variety.

8. Children like eating foods that they have helped prepare. Give a child a simple job like washing an apple, peeling the shell off a hard boiled egg or tearing lettuce for a salad.

Redmond is a tech-savvy place to live. Most families here are no strangers to using laptops, Bing, smartphones, gaming platforms and a whole host of other technol-

ogy. Most kids I know are actually teaching their parents how to use these technologies, and roll their eyes when mom doesn’t know how to send a voice text using Siri.

With children’s use of computer technologies on

the rise, increased screen time promotes exposure to blue-spectrum light, neurological visual cortex stimulation and sedentary behavior.

All of these correlate with unprecedented rises in ADD/ ADHD, anxiety/mood/sleep disorders, obesity, diabetes and heart disease.

How much of this is related to screen time versus other first-world issues, like a nutrient-deficient diet and sedentary lifestyle? It’s hard to tell. Screen time, how-

ever, directly contributes to sedentary behavior and poor diet choices in children, as kids get “sucked in” to gaming, Facebook, Twitter, etc., and then sit for hours eating snacks devoid of protein and nutrition.

Increased screen usage in the evening gives kids more blue-spectrum light exposure when they should be winding down for bed, which directly inhibits melatonin secretion. This makes [ more screen page 13 ]

preschoolers to go through a short period of time when eating does not interest them. Skipping a meal will not hurt a healthy child. If a child is active and growing steadily, a small appetite is nothing to worry about.

However, sometimes a loss of appetite can be a warning.

A child that seldom eats and does not seem to be growing normally could be ill, tense or worried and should be seen by a doctor.

CHILD CHAT

Denise Ensign

Lessons we can learn from our children Children are incredibly wise and tend to see the world with a different perspective. When we take the time out of our busy schedules to stop and listen to their point of view, there are some profound lessons to be learned. Children of all ages will offer practical words of wisdom that will always benefit parents. We have put together a few of our favorites.

Lesson 1: Don’t Be Afraid to Fail “Mom, I worked so hard, I deserved to win!”

Your children will practice, prepare and give it their all, but there will be moments in their lives when they don’t get the outcome they were hoping to achieve.

This is a great time to cheer on your children for not only working hard, but staying motivated to try again.

Lesson 2: Be a Good Role Model “When I grow up, I want to be a teacher, just like you, Mom.” You are a hero to your children and the person

after which they will model much of their own lives.

Remember that children learn more from what you do than what you say. Be mindful of the decisions you make, as they will be the examples your children have for the future. Make mistakes, learn from them and show them you can laugh at yourself or learn from the experience.

Kids love alone time with you, so make their bedtime routine count every night!

Reading is fundamental to any child’s success, and according to the National Educational Association, children who are read to at home have a higher rate of success in school. This is a great way to build reading comprehension skills in a fun and special way.

Lesson 3: Read Aloud to your Children Every Night “Mommy, can you read me just one more bedtime story?”

[ screen from page 12] it much more difficult for kids to sleep, causing mood problems and poor growth (growth hormone is most active at night when sleeping). It also disregulates their cortisol stress response, which triggers stress-eating of sugary snacks and subsequent weight gain.

Think about kids’ development in terms of evolution: we evolved for millennia with the sun and fire as our only light sources, and no electronic

exposure except the occasional thunderstorm. We ran around outdoors at least 12 hours of the day. Kids are most healthy when we raise them in line with their naturally evolved physiology, so keep this in mind when balancing out their exposure to modern technology.

A crazy turn of events on Tuesday between Bear Creek and Crosspoint Academy reminded many of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2B state semifinal game.

Bear Creek and league rival Crosspoint met for the first time this year, a game that has been heavily anticipated since the start of the season. Bear Creek and Crosspoint played each other five times in the 2011-2012 soccer season,

including one district final and the state semifinal, which Bear Creek won, 2-1, on its way to the state title.

However, it was the semifinal meeting that looked all too familiar in Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s match. Last year, Crosspoint scored early and led for most of the game, in which Bear Creek scored two goals in the final 10 minutes to win the match.

So in the first meeting of the new season, Bear Creek found itself again down with 10 minutes to play, but this time it was not by one but two goals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are a young team, and today was a good test of our character,â&#x20AC;? said head

Gonzalez said.

The final go-ahead goal came with just minutes left to play when a hard, individual effort by freshman Sara Hasting was rewarded with a one-on-one breakaway that she slotted home past the Crosspoint keeper.

The win keeps Bear Creek undefeated in the young Sea-Tac 2B season at 3-0 and 6-3 overall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Good teams find a way to win, and we did just that,â&#x20AC;? said Gonzalez.
