Countdown....

TO SUMMER!! I can't believe that another school year is over for me and in 2 weeks Molly will be a 1st grader. It just makes my heart swell with love for her when I think about how much she has grown up in her 5th year. A few more months until she turns 6!! Which means in only 10 short years she will be driving, but I won't think about that yet! She is loving soccer, even if she just chases the pack of kids who are chasing the ball, and even if she is just looking for four leaf clovers in the grass while she is playing goalie. I am proud of her for trying, she is having a blast.
She has soared in kindergarten and loves school, a proud accomplishment for two parents!

Will has loved his year at the preschool this year. He has learned so much and waves hey to his friends everyday. I carry him upstairs most afternoons with a red face, a hard day of playing outside or in his classroom. I am so glad he has the opportunity to be with such loving teachers. He is into everything and loves to play outside and drink milk. He is more talkative, but not much is understood. He is so excited to get up in the morning and loves to follow his sister around. He has a fun and outgoing personality, his laugh is infectious! We are truly blessed with two great kids.

I am wrapping up my 5th year at the preschool, I have gotten a full time job! Hard to believe in all the education turmoil going on here in Rome. A school is closing and teachers are being let go almost at every school. I will be teaching Ga Lottery funded pre-k at a child development center and Will can go with me. That makes it all the better. I know he will do great! I will miss my relaxed schedule and Fridays off, but it has been a great opportunity to be at the preschool. It is time to move on, I am excited.

C- I am so happy for you. But, we are going to miss seeing you. For 5 years you have been such an important part of our lives. You have taught each of my natural children and been such a tremendous help with one of our other guys. I will miss our almost daily contact. I will miss seeing M- and talking to her. You are such a talented teacher.

I'm glad I'll get to keep up with you with your blog.
