Kelsey has her dream "house". The house is complete with a kitchen, shutters that open and close, a pink door and is furnished with a purple chair. The boys have a fort. It is still in the building stage, but soon it will have walls, a roof, real windows, a ladder, a trap door and a requirement for every fort, a secret spy hole.
My mom and mother-in-law both plant huge gardens, and they always have, even when their kids were little. I'm utterly amazed and impressed by this. I can't imagine taking the time to do all of the work required to take care of a garden, the weeding! the watering! Did I mention that both of these amazing ladies also then can from their bountiful crop? Sometimes I feel guilty that I don't, that I have no desire to do so, and that our "garden" consists of three tomato plants in pots on our deck. BUT when my mom goes out of town for a few days and I have to take care of her garden, I get over it! Besides, both my mom and mother-in-law share their harvest with us :)
And our baby boy Zachary has graduated from pre-school. The program was oozing with cuteness. The picture of the class with their arms over their head is when they were singing a song about the life cycle of a caterpillar, this is the part where they are the cocoon. Zac was the letter "M", who has a big mouth and eats marshmallows. I'm pretty sure he was typecast. Zac had a wonderful school year, learned lots and had lots of fun, a perfect pre-school experience.
