Middle School, Here We Come! (Yikes!)

He did it!

And I did it too!

We finished the 5th grade!

Today was Joe's last day of school, and, perhaps more importantly, it was his last day of elementary school.

On Monday afternoon, Devon, Lucy, Max and I attended the 5th grade Farewell Ceremony, which was really a graduation of sorts.  My first thought was Oh no, I didn't even bring any tissue! but Max and Lucy made sure that I did not sit and enjoy the ceremony long enough to even shed a tear.

Max squealed and ran around, screamed, laughed, climbed onto stacked tables, fell and cried....

And Lucy was bored to tears, often asking is this over yet? and occasionally making noises as she tapped on walls or stomped her feet.

Yes, we were "that" family at the back of the crowded room :)

Ah yes, the life of a mama!
