Well school has ended here and we are our first week into the summer. Honestly, this school year flew by and maybe I will say that every year, but looking back it felt like we were just starting. I had a unique situation this year because I knew both of the girls' teachers outside of school. I really feel it was a blessing, especially for Emma Catherine and her first year at real school. I was always confident they were both in good hands and learning so much. In a lot of ways, I will miss this next year because I already know I won't personally know either of their teachers. I am so thankful for wonderful teachers that helped both girls have a wonderful year.
Bailey finished school a week before Emma Catherine and had a small party with her class. Unfortunately a few kids were sick and another was out of town so it was a small party, but the kids were excited to have happy meals for lunch.

Emma Catherine had a pizza and popsicle party during her last week of school. She also had kindergarten fun day and field day her last week so she was very busy. I helped Emma Catherine's teacher a lot the last week of school and when I finally said goodbye to her, I cried. I think it was out of thankfulness and gratitude, and also a feeling of finality because she is not coming back to school next year. I know we will still see her because she lives down the road and her children will be at Riverchase next year, but it will different not seeing her at school.
