End of Year Insanity

We are fully immersed in end-of-year activities!

We have picnics, field days, Cub Scout ceremonies, school open houses, and class parties. This time of year, I am so busy shuttling kids here and there, and finishing school projects (Tristan and I are currently working on a Bald Eagle diarama, featuring an awesome paper mache mountain, nest of babies eagles, and a river full of fish).

And yes, getting the summer activities set up for all three kids. Tristan has "Better Together" - a program for kids with Autism. They work on social skills, turn-taking, making friends, conversational skills -- all while on the playground. It's a great program, and its contained within our local town's summer playground kid for typical kids, so Tristan's little brother gets to go to the playground program as well.

And Emerson is signed up for half-day camp, which will be his first experience with camp. I am just really hoping he won't be completely misunderstood by his friends and camp counselors. His speech is getting so much better, BUT we still have a long way to go.

Bring on the summertime fun!
