Graduates


Emma won the president's award, little smartie.  She gets top grades and school comes so naturally to her.  Lucky kid, she won't have to work her tail off as it gets harder.  But she has developed great study habits...far better than mine ever were!
 Emma has been so excited about the end of her year.  Yesterday she went to Disneyland with the whole sixth grade.  Where was Disneyland when I left elementary school?  She is gearing up to go into young womens, too.  Her birthday is not until August, but she gets to go to girls camp in June.  She keeps saying things like, "Father's Day will be my very last time singing in sacrament meeting," or, "Mom, this is my last time taking my backpack to school."  I just nod and smile.  I guess I remember that nervous/excited feeling knowing big changes were coming.

 My little buddy is going to full day school this fall.  (Assuming we are still living here, which I am for now.)  He asks me often about when he gets to go to the girls school.  He gets bored at home more now, so I'm excited for him to go, but I'll miss my little buddy.  I wonder how much longer he will still say, "snuggle time!" when I ask him what time it is.  We love our snuggle time.

Kids are growing up! :-) Congrats to Emma! Is there a maybe move in your future?

A definite move, we just have no idea where yet. Possibly before the end of the year. So annoying not to know where you will be in 12 months!

Any news on your move? We probably have one in our near future too. Bleh.
