bittersweet

We have been blessed with another wonderful year of school for both of the boys.

{s} loved Miss Roslyn and Miss LaDonna to pieces, and looked forward to school almost every day. I don't know if that happens too often with 2-3 year olds. We're going to miss them!

{p} simply had an amazing year. He really opened up to Mrs. Donaldson. She discovered his interests quickly, and encouraged his passions for science and reading... often letting him bring home "extras" like special books, a microscope, etc. He blossomed this year, and it has been so fun to watch. Tomorrow is not only his last day of first grade, but the last day at his school. Next year he'll be somewhere new. Always one to be sentimental, tonight he told me that he was a little happy but also a little sad about the last day. Then he asked me if I could pray for summer to go by really fast, and tomorrow to last a long time. Definitely a bittersweet moment in time for him.

How sweet! I completely agree about wanting summer to go by quickly. We've only be out a week and I'm already for it to be over with. It's so hard trying to keep the girls entertained.
