It’s Finals Week….

Hey Guys!

What a busy week for both my kids and my dear husband.  For my husband he is SO stressed right now.  It is finals week for him.  He has ONE more final to take on Thursday.  He stresses about test and 90% of the time does REALLY well on them.

He is going to school majoring in History.  He loves History.  He could literally talk about it ALL day….  After Thursday he will have roughly a two week break.  YAY!!!!His kids have really missed him and so have I.

Aimee was chosen by her teacher to participate in the school wide spelling bee.  Only one student per class was selected.  I wish they would have told her an exact date…we found out last Thursday about it.  Aimee didn’t know then when it was.  She didn’t find out Friday.  However, when she went to school on Monday she found out that the Spelling Bee was THAT day….

Why in the world didn’t the teacher let us know of the day????  So Eric or I could have at least tried to be there.  I HATE missing things that my kids are in.  And today, was Aimee’s Recorder concert.  I know I didn’t miss much.  Neither Eric or I went to that.  And I hated that I had to miss that as well.

Eric also had to go to Zachary’s IEP meeting today.  I was suprised to hear them say that Zach was really improved a lot.  Hopefully, over the summer I can help him some with his reading and spelling.  Anyway, one of the special Education teacher told Eric that one day Zachary came into class and just broke down in tears…. I was heartbroken to hear that.  He told his teacher that he missed his daddy.  You see my kids see less of there daddy now, than when he was active duty.  That should change once Eric graduates.

Tomorrow, Aimee’s class is taking a field trip.  She is really excited about that and has been planning her lunch for the last week.  They get to eat on the bus since it is a two hour drive there and back.  And yes, they are pushing it for time.  Last year Daniel didn’t get back until 1 minute before school was let out.

And then On Monday starts Field Day for the kids.  It is Daniel and Zachary’s field day.  Aimee was picked for a helper.  Her field day is next week…..

Daniel also toured his middle school that he will be attending next year.  They made it into a field trip for the kids.  He was VERY excited and had a great time getting familiar with the school.

Whew, this has been a SUPER SUPER long year for us…….ALREADY!

Oh, and progress reports came home today….not one negative on any of there reports.  Zachary even received an S+ in Spelling!

I am excited for the kids to be out of school…I say that yet when the middle of June rolls around I will be ready for them to go back to school…..

I hope you all had a fabulous Tuesday….
