Why is it that "winding down" takes so much more effort and planning? School is "winding down"...so we find ourselves swamped with Teacher Appreciation, Testing, and planning all of those end of the year events. Baseball is "winding down", so we plan end of season parties and closing ceremonies and coaches' gifts etc. etc.
This week was teacher appreciation week at school...I collected money (whatever each family was comfortable contributing and completely optional) and put this little thing together:
The pot holds cards/pictures that were drawn by the kiddos and the "flowers" hold gift cards. The Nugget started in a Mid Year Kindergarten program this January and his sweet, loving and wonderful teacher got very very suddenly sick and passed away in March. It was terrible...but the woman who stepped in to finish the year has done such an amazing job of taking these little tiny people and making them love school and, for that, I am so thankful. I hope she likes this.
We had our "mudhen" party last night in our backyard...so so fun! I have sooo many hot dogs left..anyone know what to do with left over hotdogs (besides freeze them??)
Here are my nails at just past 3 weeks...I actually peeled one off yesterday so time to take them all off!
This was after I'd cut them...you can see the grow out but from far away, they still look pretty great.
I'll leave you with a picture of The Diddle after his very first beach soccer tournament...after 2 full days of playing his heart out in the sun, they came in 2nd in their division (and this mama's heart could barely stand the excitement of the game..back and forth..the other team won by ONE point!!) Here's my tired and happy little dude:
Anyway, Happy Friday to you all and to all you mamas out there, A VERY Happy Mother's Day!!!
