I have become very lax in writing here. The days are passing way to quickly. Here we are--the MIDDLE OF MAY!!!! Only 8 more days of school, but who's counting.
Things are very busy this time of year. Friday night I hosted my annual end-of-the-year Class Family Picnic at the city park. All but three of my children and their families came with covered dishes and 2 liter drinks. The children had fun playing after they ate. As I told them that night, I am so grateful to have had such a wonderful year with their children. It seems as though every year is the best and I will hate to give them up to their first grade teacher.
Tomorrow night we will be attending the Academic Awards Ceremony in which our Maggie will receive some type of memento for her efforts this year. Good grief, she is finishing 7th grade. Seems like only yesterday I had her all cleaned and shined for her first day of preschool with Miss April...Mags was 3. Now fast forward----it's 10 years later.
Friday afternoon during the 8th grade students' lunch, I will have those 8th graders that were in my class for their Kindergarten year, to come and have lunch with me in their 'old classroom' and we will celebrate their success in finishing 9 years at our school and reminisce about their days when they were little fellers and gals. Of course, I will take their picture and hang it by their Kindergarten group picture on my wall of fame.
Time is passing way to quickly. I want it to slow down and I don't know how to stop it. Got any suggestions?
