Another Busy week, and I am late getting my Moment up and running! Mr. Linky is still not working, as most of you may already be aware of, so you will need to leave your link in the comment boxes today!
There is much to treasure, should we choose to do it. I find myself really struggling to make that choice lately. It’s been a tough week of adjustment to having Jadon & Kiahna home with me all day. We all miss our routine. This coming week everyone will be home (after Tuesday) and that can feel a little overwhelming!
Deep Breath.
Anyway, Zach had three baseball games this week, and he says he won’t be playing baseball next year in high school. Wants to run track… I’ll miss seeing him play.
I know there are many years of watching this one play though… In fact we will be headed to his second game in just an hour…
I am going to miss elementary school field trips… sitting on the back of a smelly bus, with boys that make more noise than I thought possible! (and you all know that I am used to lots of noise!) Searching kids for Ticks as we get on the bus… you know… fun stuff!
I visited Gene Stratton Porter’s house with Lucas’ class yesterday. She lived in our area 100 years ago, and was a very famous author in that time. We have never read anything she has written though, but are going to put at least one of her books on our summer reading list!
She loved animals and nature, and her books were about her home & the swamp that was near her house… so a visit to the swamp was a part of the trip too. It was a neat tour (despite the tick search) where they got to explore the creatures found on the bottom of a pond…
The boys were in heaven!! They got to see the difference between a tad pole and a salamander as they dug through the scoop with their spoons, amazing how much life was in one little scoop of pond goo….
Lucas had a great school year! Thanks Mrs. Steffen for that! She is a long time friend & I will miss going in to help in her class! She did a great job this year, especially since it was her first year of teaching in the regular mode!
