#437 The clock is ticking loudly indicating that our time in Africa is quickly approaching. This is when I treasure EVERY SINGLE MINUTE as a family unit. True, we go to Africa as a family but our time together is not the same as we know it here in the states.
#438 My principal granted me permission to accompany the fourth grade choir to their contest at a water park. I did not have to take a personal day AND I was blessed to spend time with Little Miss and bunches of other fourth graders.
#439 As Little Miss and I were on a double rider waterslide, I started laughing, showing signs of delight. My daughter shouted over the flow of water, “Momma, are you really having fun?” “Yes, sweet one. YES! YES! YES!” I received the gift of fun that day at the waterpark. I resist allowing fun to enter my mothering these days. By the time I am home and am mom, my fun cycle is OVER! It is a sad, sad fact BUT my children are FUN and the Lord has given us so many fun experiences to share together.
#440 I am so happy that in the midst of this CRAZY spring season, my children bring me JOY!
#441 My precious man had to make a hard decision this week. He chose wisely and spent the entire day with Little Miss on her very last elementary school field trip. These are bittersweet days and I hate to imagine both of us missing them.
Not a single picture of the husband!
#442 A potentially crazy day ended up delightfully pleasant.
#443 Have a I mentioned how much we love the small town school district we call home?? The Lad and Pumpkin were on the honor roll so they earned a day at Six Flags. More fun!!!
#444 I made a decision to not make scrapbooks for my students like I do yearly. I fretted over it for a while but after numerous computer issues, I had to surrender. You can’t imagine how much weight was taken off of my shoulders this week!!! Now I can have fun with my kids before heading out of the country for the summer!
#445 Walking after school with a few co-workers. Why did we not start this sooner?!?!!
