12 More Days

Counting today, there are only twelve more days of school left.  Both boys have had an awesome year, and we have much love for Mrs. Raney and Mrs. Duke.  You know what is great about E.O.G.'s week?  NO HOMEWORK!  I took this picture last week.  Next week starts the last field trips, cook outs, field day, third grade idol (Wyatt said he would "die" before he sang at school, lol), the fifth grade dance, and yearbooks.  Yesterday I signed Levi out early, to go get his eleven year physical and the D-Tap shot.  I also decided to get the meningitis one, since there is talk of making it manditory very soon for middle schoolers.  The buddies were practically giddy with excitement to see someone else get a shot.  They had talked all morning about if Levi was going to cry or not, lol.  Of course, he was great.  He hasn't complained about any soreness yet either.  The doctor asked me if he was a picky eater, and I almost started laughing.  Does he look like a picky eater to y'all?  I mean the boy already weighs 86 pounds in the fifth grade.  I only weighed 98 when I graduated from high school!  He hasn't been picky about eating anything since the day he was born.  Those of you who remember his baby fat rolls can attest to that.  Landon keeps comparing him to himself in the fifth grade saying he is small.  But, last night I reminded Landon that he was one year older in the fifth grade than Levi, too.  Who knows what Levi will look like next year this time.  All I can say is, hold on tight.  Kids grow up WAY to quickly.  One minute they are potty training, and the next your husband lets them drive the Suburban home down Grandpa's road.

I don't know when he leaves for his trip. That is a good question. Bethany might know, she comes home today I think.

Your father will be here on Father's Day. He is supposed to leave the 22nd. Hope we can all get together on that day.
