Summer, Summer, Summertime...

Preschool ended Thursday and Brian decided to teach the boys some Will Smith to usher in the summer break. He started singing, "Summer, summer, summertime. Time to sit back and unwind."

But I guess when you're four and still developing your vocabulary and "unwind" wouldn't be in your vocabulary anyway since your energy is unending (much like this sentence), you hear this...
"Summer, summer, summertime. Time to sit back and whine."

Which really cracked him up. A lot. He asked, "Daddy, do you mean 'whine' like this? Eyyyyyhhh."

Which, if that's what this summer comes down to, I may very well lose my mind.

But, hey! We've got summer vacation, folks! Here is how the fellas ended out their school year.

Nothing says, "Partay!" like some cookies and capri sun.

And, I'm so very thankful to these special ladies for loving on my boys this year. When we prayed on the way to school, our prayers included thanking God for our wonderful teachers (and their saint-like ability to make it through the day without strangling our kids). I always felt safe leaving my children with them, knowing they would supply abundant love, solid teaching and simulating, FUN activities.

So, thank you, Ms. Gretchen, Ms. Ginger and Ms. Carmen, for loving and teaching our Noah. We love you very much!

And, thank you, Ms. Ollie and Ms. Diana, for loving and teaching our Tyler! We love you very much!
