End of the school year

As the end of the school year is coming to an end once again, I find myself proud of Samantha and Zack.  Not only of their accomplishments but their ability to adventure on what they like to volunteer in from after school activities to just hanging out with their friends.

I always tell my children, no matter what they do in life Matt and I will be proud of them no matter what.  Samantha LOVES to be involved in after school activities, like Choir and learning how to p[lay cribbage.  She likes to have the ability to challange herself and work hard to make things perfect in her own way.  Zack on the other hand is a typical boy, likes to get down and dirty from playing kickball to football at recess with his friends.

As of this Friday, we will be housing a kindergartener, a 5th grader and a middle schooler.  The tears and cheers will be flowing and I am sure that Samantha will miss her teachers.  But I always tell her that visiting her most favorite teachers will want to hear what she has done in middle school so far.

Emma is looking forward to kindergarten.  So at work, she always practices her letters and numbers so she can show her teacher in the summer open house.  Getting "homework" in kindergarten will be something Emma is looking forward to and cannot wait to meet new friends in the long run.

Zack is a little apprehensive on starting 5ht grade in the fall, but I can see that he is going to look forward on the adventure in his life.  Maybe getting involved in a couple clubs that the school offers will open up some possibilities for him.

Then there is Abby, even she is close to 4 months (on June 6th), she is very alert and taking things in around her.  Knowing that she can recognize on how loud she can actually be, she thinks its not soo bad after all.  Finding foods she likes is something that I LOVE giving.  Her reactions and shivers on them are funny but yet cute. Cherishing every moment I am spending with Abby is rewarding but yet the months are flying by too quickly.  Just wish they would stay small forever.
