lazy summer days ahead!

yesterday was kai's last day of fourth grade! i am so excited to have the week off and begin our summer shenanigans together.  planning lazy mornings and fun afternoons - swimming in an outdoor pool, eating popsicles, picnicking at the beach, going for bike rides, relaxing - is exactly what i need right now to keep me from wallowing in the sadness that happens when i realize my little guy is growing... kai will be ten and in grade five at the end of summer!

but for now i will take a big breath and revel in summertime.



photo taken just after a soak with the water hose... kai is almost three!

(here is a post i wrote about the last day of school and mother angst last year... if you missed it.)
