The thermometer said 97 degrees today, but somehow summer just isn't here yet! Today has been crazy - again. I guess I should say normal, since crazy seems to be the standard. I spent most of the day in special education meetings, doing paperwork, or solving a Kindergarten graduation vs. awards program issue. I'm tired and ready for summer when all I have to think about is which t-shirt to wear or which day to take the kids to the library!
Memorial Day weekend was nice. We had a great picnic, enjoyed seeing family we hadn't seen in 6 months, and decorated several graves. I went by my dad's grave on the way home, and barely beat sunset. I'm glad I went because the flowers we had put out previously were a little faded. We put out a flag, updated the flowers, and then put some purple flowers out on my grandparents' grave as well. Next time I want to buy enough to do all the other relatives' sites in the cemetery. Almost all my ancestors are there, and it doesn't get much traffic way out in the country like that--but it's a peaceful place under the wide Texas sky.
Alyssa is sick today - stomach issues and a fever. She hasn't eaten very much, either. Jonathan is enjoying his last few days as a Kindergartener. He's done really well this year, and I can't believe he'll be in first grade! He brought home his journal from this year, and it's really cute. He's got all sorts of things he's written about - mostly monsters, class events, or super heroes. I also ordered his school supplies today - they will be delivered to his new class in the fall! How fabulous is that? I don't have to fight crowds, and he gets everything he's supposed to have exactly the way the teachers want it. I will probably still get him a few special things, but the basics are covered.
Two more days.........God help us all!
