The Last Day of School

Today is D-man's last day of school (here's a picture of him in his REACH shirt on the last day of school).  We'll be celebrating with a trip to Sonic (the last school fund raiser of the year) right after school. D-man got to choose the restaurant tonight so we are headed to Benihana's near our home for dinner (I thought we would be headed for pizza, but Marshall somehow had a feeling we would be headed to Benihana's). We took the kids a couple of years ago, but D-man apparently doesn't remember them cooking in front of us so it should be a "new" experience.

Today has been a "weird" day for me as well. Both boys will now be home full time for me - it is our first "summer off" together. I'm really looking forward to it, but am closing a chapter on this part of my unemployment. And a new one is about to begin. So, just an adjustment to be made. I've been so fortunate to be given this opportunity. Now I'm looking forward to no more homework, sleeping in, and enjoying what is sure to be one of the best summers with my boys.
