I know this announcement is a week late but I had to sneak it in there. Like the annoying mom I am, I snapped a lot of pictures to commemorate the last day of school.
This one is at the bus stop. I got a bit teary-eyed thinking that would be the last time they’d take the bus to school together because Haddie is switching schools next year.
I think the weeping is from the fact I’ll now have to drive her both ways while still making the trek to the bus stop with Bode.
Bode with his sweet kindergarten teacher who announced her retirement.
I sure hope he had nothing to do with that decision.
And Haddie: just a wee bit excited to be done!
Both of them had a great year with wonderful teachers. Their report cards made me chuckle because their strengths are completely opposite of each other. Bode got top grades in everything except for art (he inherited my stick-figure abilities) while Haddie excelled in the arts and struggled in math (that one is all about Jamie).
Here’s to a great summer!
