Maxwell's last day of Preschool

Cute boy is ready for summer to be here

Look at that head of sweet curls.  We were all feeling sick after Memorial Day so I stayed home and got lots of cuddles in with Emmalyn.  

Here's her napping.  I can't get enough of the cuddles.

Hanging around watching TV because when she was awake, she didn't have much energy.

Later that evening she started playing a little.  She "read" me some books.

But a little bit of play and she was tired again.  :(

While it's sad she didn't feel well, it's not often you get a day filled with cuddles from a 2 year old.

Last day of preschool!!

I got to go to the end of school party in Maxwell's class.  I will miss these kids.  It's been fun being able to be a part of reading to them regularly, helping with their class parties, and seeing them at parties.

Clockwise from bottom:

Avis, Joshua V, Preston, Hailey, Joshua K, Maxwell, Jacek

Maxwell says that Joshua (Maxwell also calls him JK) is his "BFF" and says they are going to get married.  I told him they don't have to be married to be friends forever.

I'm so sad that Maxwell isn't going to see all his buddies every day anymore.  None of them are going to the same school and live across the city.  :(

Our favorite - Ms. Cynthia.  We had no idea what a smart decision we made when we chose to be in her class 2 years ago.  Maxwell has thrived and progressed so much.  Maxwell loves learning and being challenged.  She has continued to foster that.  We are so grateful for her!

I couldn't bear to fully cut him off from school so I am going to keep him in school about every 2 weeks 

We wrapped up the day by splashing in rain puddles.

It was a splashing success
