The end of another school year

The school Emily has been at this year is just a 6th grade school. It has been absolutely wonderful. The staff is outstanding. And to think how much I hated it when I was there but that was because I had switched schools 3 times in 2 years.

Today when I pulled into the car pool line I noticed it was unusually long and slowwww. The line loops all the way arund from one side of the school to the other. At the back there is always a joke of the day (usually lame) and the answer it at the drop off. Today, instead of the joke, there were signs all along. They said stuff like "Have a great summer!" "Thanks for a great year!" "Good luck at IMS/CRMS." "Now it's time to say good bye." And the last one was "We're ready to be in our jammies."

Then, I got to the drop off and realized why the line was moving so slow and so long - those crazy teachers were out there in their jammies, waving signs and hooting and hollering!!!

I'm so gonna miss this school - but I will be back in just 4 years with JR.

And in less than one hour I will have a 7th grader!
