YEAH!! Last day of school. Things that I look forward to.
-No activity fees for 3 months.
-No lunch money sent to school.
-Not spending 2 hours a night helping with homework.
-No running to the school, to drop off, back home, swimming lessons, back home, pick up kid, back home.
-No lunch money sent to school.
-No permission slips to sign.
-No lunch money sent to school. Wait I said that.
Just playing. The kids ended out the school year great. We saw a huge improvement in Izzy's report card, it wasnt bad ever, just it was different from what we saw at home. And example would be counting. She would sit down and rattle of numbers to 140, but not at school. Not quite sure what changed the last part. But it was a nice change.
Josh does not have to do summer school this year. He has made great improvement this year with his reading. We are going to keep up with the reading over the summer. I dont want him to lose what he has gained this year. Really sad, we are moving on from one of the best special ed teachers I have ever worked with. They have all been great, but Mrs M and Josh were kinda like two peas in a pod. But I hear next years is really good to. So hears to hopeing that they have that same grove. Josh has gotten himself a job for this summer. He had a goal in mind to save for. He wants to buy a season pass for Powder Ridge, get his snowboard waxed, and buy school clothes. Now that is not a little amount of money he wants to earn. But he has worked two weeks, and has almost half saved for already. He was pretty cute, he got paid and I gave him $8.00 out of the cash and told him I would put the rest in his savings account, and he gave me $5.00 back and said, no I just need the 3. We have a kid on a mission here folks.
Amanda, well, of course she did good. She is just one smart cookie. Her teachers love her. She just really shines. She is doing Marching Band again this year. She is playing bass drum. She is also the bass line leader. So we are super proud of her. We got her schedule for next year and well, we just looked at it and shook our heads. I think this kid is going to be a doctor. I dont know. She has great things coming for her.
Jack finished his last day of preschool today. On Monday night, I think it finally hit him. He all the sudden got teary eyed, and said, what if I want to go see Sara. I just cant stop seeing her. Big hugs and lots of reassureing.
Well I am off for tonight. Hope this finds everyone well!!
