We made it. The 2013-2014 school year is over. Lorien had a successful first year of middle school, Clare and Wyatt got another year of elementary school under their belts and Adell finished preschool. The last month of school was crazy...the last two weeks were total madness. Every day one kid or another had some end-of-the-school-year-activity. I think I cooked dinner at home twice in those last two weeks. We all need a vacation!
Wyatt's 4th grade teacher is retiring this year. She was very strict...I loved her. I am sad none of my other kids will get to have her for a teacher in the 4th grade. He learned a lot from her and grew a lot as a student. She was pretty fond of Wyatt.
We made it through open house at the elementary school. It was nice to only have two classrooms to visit instead of the three we had to visit in years past.
Lorien attended her first middle school dance (it was also the last dance of the year...which they had postponed due to some pranks at school).
We made it through our first middle school open house. It was very long...Lorien needed some extra credit in one of her classes and earned it by showing us every inch of her classroom.
The orchestra concert...not to be confused with the district wide Strings Festival that happened five days earlier. Lorien sure loves to play viola.
Adell "graduated" from preschool. She had such a fantastic teacher in Miss Carrie. Adell got to attend preschool at Miss Carrie's house with a small group of girls. She had a blast and learned a lot. In the fall, Adell will head to "transitional-Kindergarten".
The elementary school band concert. Lots of amazing music in my life these days!
And the very last day (today). We made it. Now, I am going to leave a package of Oreo cookies out on the kitchen table and sleep in tomorrow morning.
Let summer begin!
