To help ease the pain of missing his Teacher (already) J got to help me perform the draw for my Blogiversary. It was highly scientific, I wrote the names out on paper, cut or ripped them apart, folded them, placed them in a bowl and let J pull one out. He loved it and quite frankly was ready to keep going, and going and going. But, alas we have a winner. Twin Mom Plus One! Twin Mom is on a bit of a writing hiatus right now, but I am going to link to her blog anyway because she is a great writer. I happen to know Twin Mom in real life and I believe she made me promise to hand deliver. I do try to keep my promises so I will have to contact her and set up a date. Congratulations Twin Mom, I hope you enjoy your photo! And thank you all again for stopping by my little place in the blogosphere. I have really enjoyed the last three years and hope to bring you more fun and antics as time goes by.
Today was the last day of school for J and it was a bit emotional. Mostly for him, but I told myself I was not going to cry. He made it all the way home before the tears started, but when they came it was hard for him to stop. It was in fact the drawing for the photo that made him cheer up. Thankfully I had it all ready for him to do when he got home. As a parent who stays home, I could not have asked for a better teacher for J. She was kind and thoughtful and oh so patient. I only hope that next year his teacher is just as great, it will be hard to top this first year. Here’s hoping. And as his French Teacher told them, you have homework to do this summer, “Have Fun”.

Congrats to J on finishing the school year; I think it’s so sweet that he loved it so much!
And congrats to you on your blog anniversary! Three years, that’s amazing! I love your blog, especially the beautiful photos you take. Congrats to Twin Mom Plus!
My niece had the same kind of trouble today with it being the last day of school. She is apparently really sad. She is only in kindergarten and is looking forward to grade one being full days. I am so glad that it cheered J up to make the draw but I am sad that I didn’t win because they are such beautiful photo’s.
Poor J. End of year can be hard if you love school. My son ran home yelling “Schools out, Schools out”. He is over the moon. Not much of an academic that one! 😉 Yay for TwinMom. Those photos are beautiful.
Last day of school here, too. As the kids get older, there’s no tears anymore. Just unabashed joy at three 10 weeks of freedom. Honestly – I miss the tears.

I’ll contact you about details for a hand delivery/coffee date/chat session 🙂
As for my blog, I keep thinking about getting back to it, one day…

Congrat to twinmomplus one!
Jack was a bit sad about scholl being over too but a trip to the spray park yesterday fixed that but good 🙂 I, myself, and quite happy about not having to rush out of bed in the morning. I am NOT a morning person… more of a midday person… not a night owl either.

so happy to hear that J had such an awesome year.
wishing him a wonderfully fun summer:
bonnes vacances, amusez-vous!!!
