I've had a wonderful summer break which ends this weekend. I can't believed I haven't blogged at all.
Our last day of the school year was June 2, if I remember correctly. I had several days of workshops and soon it was time for our trip to Birmingham/Gatlinburg. We had a great time of hiking, swimming, eating out, indoor games, and of course, shopping. Caleb really enjoyed playing the game, Trouble, and Ethan proudly "read" a book to me and told me the beginning sound of the letters. I especially enjoyed my time taking care of Lydia while the boys hiked with the rest of the family.
Back home I had more days of workshops to attend and days to just relax and read. Then it was time for my trip to Fort Worth! It had been few months since I had seen the boys so I expected them to feel a little cautious around me. I was pleasantly surprised when both of them called out Nanna as they hugged me and climbed on my lap immediately! We had a great time together with the sprinkler, trampoline, swimming, eating out, indoor games, and even more I can't think of at the moment. I slept in a double bed next to Jasper's crib and he was soooo cute when he would look over at me to see if I was awake in the morning. He would keep looking and laying back down until he saw my eyes open and then he would say, "Nanna, UP!' Bennett and I kept putting together a large floor puzzle of the USA and before long, he was able to put it together himself! We had a great time together.
Now my summer break has ended and I start back to work Monday.
