Drew “graduates” from Pre-K today. I may or may not have shed a tear this morning and I never thought I would be like that! Yesterday marked the last day of preschool for both kids, which means it is officially summer in our world. Bring on the warm temps, later bedtimes, vacations, summer wardrobes, and dirty little feet! We recently worked on our 2013 chalkboard summer bucket list this week. It never really changes much, but my kids love doing it. This year, we utilized our chalk wall, and we certainly have no excuses to ever be bored!
We truthfully never get to everything on the list in any given summer, but this is a good blueprint to work from. I’ve said this many times, but ages 4 and 5 have been my absolute favorite stage/age, so I’m sure this will be such a fun summer!
Before it’s officially summer, Drew has to graduate this morning. On to half-day kindergarten in the fall and he could not be more ready or excited! That short haircut makes him look way too old, I can’t handle it.
This little lady will be moving on to Pre-K next year, and luckily gets to have her brother home in the afternoons to play. Because they are close in age, I know she is a bit jealous that Drew gets to go to “big school” next year. Why do kids want to rush it, and parents want to stop time in its tracks?
Drew took off his shoes and t-shirt last night and spontaneously ran through the sprinkler with a neighbor at 7:30pm. He was in heaven. Hopefully our 2013 chalkboard summer bucket list gives you some new ideas. Welcome to summer! XO
