Here's to something wonderful...

It's finally summer for us!
Toward the end of the school year I felt like I was being tossed end over end at the mercy of an undertow.
Tonight, I sit here - knowing it has been too long since I have updated my blog - with little to divulge.

My son graduated from preschool. There was an adorable little ceremony in his classroom on Friday. I cried big tears. He hugged me with his big knobby self and I was both proud and sad.

My little girl got her ears pierced. I saw a very brave little woman perched high up in a chair as she waited for the shot of pain that she knew was coming. I kept trying to talk her out of it - not really ready for it myself - but she insisted that having her ears pierced was exactly what she wanted. And it was. She loves having 'real' earrings. I can't believe my baby is big enough to make a decision like that.

I have looked forward to summer like it was a far off galaxy for so long. Now that it's here, I really don't know what to do with myself. I have all these things I'd like to do - but I am so bad at pacing myself - I am afraid I'll try to check off my whole list within the first few days of summer... It's a good thing I have two adorable kids to help set the pace.

I miss my friends. Working so many hours and having an obligation to sing at another church on Sunday sure has made me feel lonely. I am glad I will be done with that by the end of June.

Still can't find my camera or the memory card that was in it. Poo.

I hope this summer is everything wonderful and beautiful that anyone could ever want.

I never loved or really appreciated being a full-time stay-at-home mom the way I do now for these twelve splendid weeks each summer!
So here's to another summer...
