School's Out for the summer!
Yep- it already is for us. Tuesday was my kids' last day.
It has been a great year for both of them.
Alex from day one was fearless, happy and the ring leader- but as her teacher said in a good way as she got everyone excited about working and being at school.
She loved school, even was happy to do homework. By the end of the year though she kept saying she was ready for first grade and her completely perfect report card would indicate that yes, she definitely is ready.

While he still likes to sometimes fight me about homework, the fights were definitely less this year and when he sits down and just does it he finishes it so quickly and easily. Spelling comes just naturally to him and we hardly even have to practice his spelling words (which is so different than both Eric and I were in school).
So to my two oldest- I am very proud of how awesome you both did this school year... now let's just survive summer.
What is your proud mommy moment this week?
OH my gosh. Did they both grow a TON over the school year? Or are you doing some fancy photography?
ReplyDeleteHave a great summer!
We have two weeks left of school and then we're out! I like your idea of taking a picture of them on the first and last days of school. I should do that too. It's amazing how much they grow in a school year!
ReplyDeleteI'm proud of them too. Wow...they do look older!
ReplyDeleteThose are great photos! They show just how much your kids have grown! amazing! I just stopped by from SITS to say hello; hope you find time to do the same.
ReplyDeleteOh, they grew so much!
ReplyDeleteWow! They sure did grow & change a lot over the course of the school year!
ReplyDeleteI will admit that I'm kinda happy that school is almost done and that we can all relax for a bit and take a break.
Awww, little sweeties! We are finishing up our school year today, yay! Enjoy summer!!
ReplyDeleteWow! So fun! It is SO NICE to hear that your kids did awesome in school. That always makes a mama happy! Madeline's preschool graduation is tomorrow and then Ethan is off track for two weeks, so it's kinda like a mini summer for us too!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing how much they grow and change during the course of a school year? Hooray for summer! We have 9 days left of school...can't wait!!

I mean is it me or did your kids like double in size?
ReplyDeleteMy friend last night had a hard time writing her sons new grade. Are you having those same issues yet??
ReplyDeleteWow you guys get out early for school the kids here go until June 6. Your kids really grew through the year too! Adorable pictures.
ReplyDeleteYay, congrats to finishing the school year on a happy note! Enjoy your summer!
ReplyDeleteAwww. That is a proud mama moment. I cannot believe how much your kids have grown in one year. Mine (especially Lucie) had very little growth :( I am not sure you'd even notice, but maybe I should have done these picture like you and I'd be surprised! Such a great idea! I have been so busy with the end of year events I haven't been blogging as much as I'd like! I have missed checking in on you! Congrats on summer! I can't wait...kids in camp and I get two months off from work. I'll be visiting more often! Enjoy your summer!

Today is Anika's last day of school and I'm so glad! I can't believe she is going to be a Freshman in High School next year though. It's unbelievable how fast time goes.
ReplyDeleteYou can really tell how much your two have grown since the beginning of the year. Hope you all have an awesome summer!
I can't even believe how much they grew in the space of this school year. What the heck!
ReplyDeleteWow they've grown so much! ADORABLE!
ReplyDeleteThey grew a whole lot over the course of a year! They are still adorable as ever :)
ReplyDeleteThere is such a difference in them between the beginning of the year and the end. It's amazing!
ReplyDeleteOur last day isn't until June 14th. Jack is counting down the days. ;-)
Congrats to Alex and Lucas!!!
