The Popsicles
There's a little 2nd grade peep who has made great gains at school this year. While we were eating popsicles together at the Popsicle Field Day Station, I asked her in a casual, yet friendly tone, "Hey Kiddo, How ya doin'?"
"Good," she answered whimsically, "I'm smart now."
I told her that she'd always been smart, and that I was glad she had enjoyed a great school year. She smiled and shrugged. Refocused on the popsicle. A sweet last day moment.
Still have a few things to do at the school site tomorrow. But I don't have to set the alarm, and I don't have to spend the whole day there. So, yay.

I shared some high fives and posed for some pics with juniors yesterday. It pretty much made my year.
KC, I'm feeling really nostalgic about our kids, and I've only been away from them for 2 days. I hope they have the funnest summers.
I'm going to plan an adventure a day.
