3 more days with other people's kids...I'm at the point I'm counting minutes.
Not that I don't love my job. I do. I had a visiting artist in to share with the kiddos. Another teacher with hidden talents. Boy were the kids impressed. In fact as a result of her visit we are really enjoying painting landscapes with water colours this week. Monday's special project will be making a water colour bookmark of their own design to inspire their reading over the summer.
Anyway. The real reason you are here.
Boy oh boy dude hates his sunglasses. If you have any hints pass them on. I would really like him to wear them boating this summer at the cottage as he HATES wind in his face and his eyes water like crazy when it is windy. But alas he wore them tonight for the 1.6 seconds it took to snap this photo.
Good times tonight in Auntie Chloe-Chloe's backyard. Well, good times interspersed with a bit of snot and a need to fall over and over again because normal climbing behaviour is inhibited by the obsessive need to carry Colin's truck everywhere you go...including up the slide ladder, as you fall backwards onto your back because you are clutching the truck and climbing one-handed, back up the ladder (with mama's help because even though you just cried over fall number one the truck is still in your hand) and then down the slide, with no hands, only to crash at the bottom...still clutching the truck and crying over the latest crash while simultaneously worrying that the truck is okay.
And much of the evening was spent with this view.
Over and over again. All flying south. All flying extraordinarily low. Over rural 0nt@rio. Perhaps 7 or more groups of 3. Ben knows how to say helicopter now.
Tomorrow should be special.
I think we will leave for work a bit early.
And next week? At Auntie Kristen's? Ben will be sporting this sweet baby gift that finally fits.
My wee little sharky.

My nephew has that same shark towel it's soooo cute.
When you have some time think of a few dates that we might be able to get together over the summer. I miss you guys!
2 more days now :)
My son would love glasses but I'm having a hard time finding some that fit him. His nose is so small that they end up on his chin.
It's the final countdown! Do do do doooo... do do do do doooo! (you have to sing it like the song!) Looking forward to summer!
