Recap

The end of the year is upon us, and it has gotten crazy. So here is a quick recap of the happenings of our week.

Monday was...well, a Monday. Lack of sleep over the weekend made it a hard day for many of my sprouts.

Tuesday was Transition Day. In the afternoon, all of kindergarten visited a 1st grade class, while we kindergarten teachers met with incoming Pre-K parents to introduce ourselves and give them a little preview of  what to expect in kindergarten. It was pretty cool to meet some of our "new" parents, and my kids LOVED first grade. They were captivated by Mrs. P, the 1st grade teacher they visited, and have asked me every day if they can go back to first grade.

Wednesday was the EHES Teacher Appreciation Day. Our awesome PTA put on a baked potato lunch for all teachers and staff. I received lots of "treasures" from my darling class.

Thursday we started work on our Mother's Day cards. Instead of doing the watercolor cards this year, my kids were given total creative freedom. The only rules were A) Only the outside was to be decorated today, and B) they had to sound out and spell "Happy Mother's Day." They did a fantastic job, and even wrote a few lines of poetry to their lucky mamas.

Friday(Today) we finished up our Mother's Day cards, and made our bath salts. My kids had a blast mixing everything together in the bag, and they loved the scent we used (peppermint). We also (reluctantly) released our butterfly friends into the wild.

It has been a crazy, wonderful week, and I am ready for the weekend!
