School is (finally!) out


School’s out, school’s out, someone let the monkeys out. I have this song going through my head today that we used to sing on our last day of school. Bean is so excited that her longest year of Kindergarten in the history of the world….is finally over. School is out early today so I am picking her up at 2 and taking her to Starbucks to celebrate (yes, my daughter is a Starbucks addict just like me – she loves their kiddie size hot chocolate) and I told her she could pick out a new chapter book at the bookstore. She is reading a fairy series that she really loves, and is excited to get a new one. We also told her we would take her out to dinner tonight and she could pick the place we go, so she is feeling like such a big girl. I cannot believe my baby has finished her first year of school now. Where does the time go? We are off to Wales tomorrow and then back to reality next week getting ready for the move.
