Shecklet #2 participated in this year’s wax museum at school. He chose James Spangler, who invented the first motorized vacuum. The kids created “buttons” that visitors pushed to “activate” the kids to tell about who they were – complete with costumes and props to look like they were a wax museum statue.
This girl likes color! We dyed the ends of her hair dark blue today. It’s so dark it looks purple (like the last time we dyed it.) but trust me, it’s blue. And so are my hands – just a bit.
The big Shecklets are off of school this week (because we opted to not sign them up for intersession classes this year.) Today we had a hand appointment for Shecklet #3, went to the park (until three bus loads of kids showed up,) and then went to MOA to ride some rides and go to the American Girl store.
Twelve years ago this kid made me a mom. I can’t believe how fast time has gone. Tonight we celebrated by going to his spring orchestra concert and then having donuts (his choice) for dessert. I am so proud of the young man he is becoming. He is kind, respectful, inquisitive, creative, and always has a hug for his mama ❤
Our friends had a birthday party for their two-year-old today. As always, there were lots of laughs and a piñata and new this year were edible bubbles and sack races!
