Comes from running a childrens party that lasts for more than four hours, with tie dyed take home shirts, arts & crafts, swimming, trampolines, a tire swing, and a lengthy patch with a pinata. Add in mid day sunshine, heat and a fair bit of humidity, and a bunch of kids six and under, and you have absolute mayhem, chaos, and madness. Went off without a hitch, besides my own sunburn, and the burn with wife had too. So attentive to keeping the festivities rolling along we didn’t reapply sunscreen after each session in the pool, and we are singed.
But now I don’t have to think about parties again until December, so heading into the summer months on solid footing. I’m going to take it easy today. Our last gymnastics block is today, and that concludes this school years extra curriculars for a few months. What a year it has been. Book reports, school trips, clubs and activities. Next year they’ll be in grades 1 & 4. Homework will be a big part of both of their lives moving forward. That and staying on top of reading! Math homework, counting, and all that follows. Lots of colouring, gluing, and using scissors if I remember the first borns time in grade one at all.
Take care.
