Well, today was Kayla's last day of school. We were both sad, but for different reasons. She was going to miss her teacher, I was trying to accept she is now a first grader! I noticed my last entry was Memorial Day Weekend. Mikayla brought home her writing journal today and I was reading some entries. This one cracked me up, "I didn't do anything for Memorial day because I do not know what it is." Cute. She said something to Nate last week that was priceless also, "Daddy, I want to go to Heaven. I want to know what 4 + 4 is and God knows everything."
This is night 2 of the girls sharing a room and sleeping in their new beds. The beds can be converted into bunkbeds later (when Ellie can develop a sense of fear of jumping off things!). So far so good. 5-10 minutes of giggles after I leave the room and then unusual silence. I'm still expecting more goofing off, arguements, poking each other, etc. Here's a picture of their new beds.
I've also been busy doing some minor house improvements I've put off for a long time. I hung curtains in our bedroom. Already converted Ellie's room into a guest room. Also, I've been painting little by little the grape theme around the kitchen. I'm trying to find a few new light fixtures, but can't find "the" one. So, in addition to finishing an article for Rochester Women Magazine, training for the July 12th Triathlon, cleaning houses, and doing daycare...I've been super busy. Our summer calendar is very packed. I swore I wouldn't let that happen and I keep adding more. I guess we are blessed to have a city that offers so much for children and we are blessed to be able to budget it all!

Your rooms look wonderful Suzanne! I am still purging my house. I want that done before we take on anything else:) Maybe later this summer we'll get to puttying and painting and fixing the floor, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did not happen until next year:)
Miss you!
