Winding Down the School Year

The kids have only a couple more weeks of school before summer vacation.

Then we adjust to our summer schedule. We need to sign up for various things and figure out when Caroline will be going to summer camp. There are a couple of possibilities including Girl Scout Camp.

Where did the school year go? It went so quickly. Caroline has learned a lot this past year. Her reading skills have much improved. She loved poetry now. Shel Silverstein being a personal favorite. Her math skills are good. I just have to convince her that math is not hard but another language to be learned.

Today I have some school stuff I need to do and I need to talk to some people over at the school. We need to get Field Day set up.

I also want to go to the gym and get the food shopping done. All this before noon after getting Caroline off to school.

I am grateful for everything I can get done today.

We are trying to figure out summer options for the offspring here as well. It crept up, didn't it?

I get the feeling we'll be trotting all over the city looking for free activities. :)

Poetry is excellent! A very fine interest to have. The Pixie loves poetry as well. The little dude is more comfortable with math than reading, which is something we will have to learn to adjust to since everyone else in the house is a reader. Right now, we are getting anxious to discover which teachers they will have next year, especially since layoffs are imminent. :p

I hope you have a lovely day despite it being a busy one! :)
