Summer :-)

So our summer is off to a great start! It started last Thursday with Blake's Kindergarten graduation where he got awards for outstanding behavior (this makes me very happy), physical education, reading acceleration, and outstanding sight words goals met. He is so very smart and so very well beahved, and athletic, more so than I realized. So proud of him, he is an amazing, well-rounded child. Bitter sweet though, because he is growing so fast! Sunday we took him to his first Atlanta Braves baseball game. He has always wanted to go, but he was too sick, or I was too pregnant, etc. All 4 of us went, and it was a blast, it was kids ultimate day at the park as well, so he got to do some extra special things, like participate in a parade around the field pre-game, get autographs, and run the bases after the game. He loved it!! I was proud of miss Natalie as well, she is only 18 months old and a very "routine" child. She takes her naps at certain times, bath, dinner, etc. is at the same time every day, but we were at the park form 10:30 a.m.- 5 p.m. and she didn't whine one time, she had a ball and she wanted to walk around herself most of the time, instead of being carried. It was a wonderful day. We have a lot of fun things planned for the summer, a summer reading program at the library, free kids movies at the theatre on Tuesdays, Blake just started Karate and Cub Scouts as well, and Natalie is going to do little tots gymnastics. PLus we have visits to the Aquarium, Six Flags, Stone Mountain, etc. planned as well. It's going to be a great summer, but I have been and plan to keep setting aside about an hour a day for Blake to keep up with his academics and reading. He loves it though, so not a problem!! :-)
