It has
been insanely busy around here the past couple of weeks. My oldest daughter is
apparently preparing for a lifetime in the spotlight. On the 19th,
she had a performance with the acting class she was in on Saturday mornings. It
was her first experience with theatre, and she received about four lines in a
sweet and short show, and she rocked every single one of them! (Not biased at all,
of course). Then her and her best friend decided to try out for the talent show,
in which she played piano and they both sang. Surprise, surprise, they made it!
So we went to that last week, and then were back again today for the 2nd
grade music program. Oh yes, and she had her piano recital on Wednesday!
Ah, but
don’t forget my other sweet little girl! She just finished her last week of
preschool, and today was the last day, which involved a very special visit to
the fire station. She was thrilled because she had been wondering if there were
any girl firefighters, and what do you know, the firefighter leading our tour
was a girl! I think Mr. Hubby and I enjoyed the tour just as much as she did,
and our little guy was completely content looking at all the bright red trucks.
The
past week was also spent winding down our Girl Scout year. Last week, we took
them (all 13 of them!) to the local bounce center, as was their request with
their cookie earnings. You don’t often think of girls being sweaty creatures,
but I was certainly proven otherwise that day. And today was the final meeting
of the year. I have really enjoyed this year, and am going to miss them all
over the summer. I think I am actually looking forward to next year! Hopefully
I can hang on to some of that enthusiasm…
Oh
yeah, and on top of all that, my summer semester classes started up a couple of
days ago. I am taking two three-credit courses, condensed into one month. It is
a brutal schedule, but it gets me ahead so much faster, and when they’re over I
will still have a whole month to truly enjoy the summer. I can’t wait!
