Another One Bites the Dust

SCHOOL YEAR THAT IS!

Today was the very last day of school for the two bigger kids.

I don't know why, but I am always emotional the last day of school.

Maybe it is because I have great memories of school.

Being young was a wonderful experience for me.

Maybe it is because it marks another milestone that my children have reached.

I really don't want them to grow up.

They are so much fun and soon will be teenagers.

Then I am not sure what they will be.

I will for sure still love them no matter what!

Brandt has passed the 5th grade and now is "at the top" of his school.

He can hardly wait to be in the 6th grade...I wonder why?

He had a great year and was very successful.

He learned more responsibility for himself and getting his homework done and turned in.

He also started to grow.

And as he reminds me frequently that he is now almost a teenager!

He is most excited for summer because swim team begins!

No sleep in days for us!

Kathleen finished the 3rd grade.

She is really sad that she won't be seeing her teacher all summer.

She loved Mrs. Bryce and all her classmates.

Her class made a movie and she was one of the stars!

She is excited for summer to be able to play with her friends!

Little does she know...

I am so glad that kids were so successful this year with all that has gone on at our house.

Not a lot of attention was given to them or their school work from me.

Their dad did a great job taking over in that role.

They did terrific! 

I am so proud of them.

They are wonderful children!

Now, on to summer vacation....
