H, you had an orthodontist appointment yesterday.

Coming out of it, I looked at my watch and noticed it was almost 4 PM.

When I suggested we blow of the rest of the day and head home, you insisted:

No, I want to go to work with you!

So we went.

While I worked, you watched movies on my phone.

You ate animal crackers, got a Sprite from the break room, and we even stopped by to see Leandra.

But when you got home you bragged about it all to K.

So today, K, I got you from school at 3:45 an took you to work with me too.

And we did all of the same things…

I think all the interest in my work was brought on by my short time left.

I have been at ARMtech/AgriSompo for nearly 8 years!

I can’t believe tomorrow is my last day – it’s surreal.

But I am so glad that I got to share a glimmer of it with you.

I love you.

Last day of school today…

H, you have finished the first grade!

You had a big field-trip to Blazing Bouncers and the park all afternoon.

I did not get to go but mom chaperoned.

Trouble was, you didn’t feel very good today.

You are run down and have a low grade fever.

If I had to guess, I think you have a cold…

You felt so bad, we even let you skip basketball practice this evening.

K, you have finished Pre-K(3)!

Your class had a pizza and swim party.

Your class set up a slip-n-slide, a water slide, and even had a big water balloon fight.

I stayed for the whole thing and only had one complaint.

It was so hot!

I nearly sweated through my work clothes and spent too much time looking for shade.

I am so proud of y’all. You both had fantastic years, although I have a sense that three years went by over the past 12 months.

Anyway. I am super tired. What a big day.

Off for a Kerrville Memorial Day tomorrow.

I love you.
