Summer is here..so says the Bug!

The conversation with Papa went so much better than i could have even imagined. He had an idea that something was up, although he wasn't sure what it was. We had a long talk, that i hope he remembers..and later that afternoon he was able to ask me some questions in regards to our talk, so that is a good sign.

After the sadness, it was time for laughter and some fun!
I headed off to the kids school for the last day festivities...along with the cake for Bug's class.

Wanna piece?

The kids all loved it, as did the teachers. It turned out much better than the one i did several years ago...Munch's class treat however did not fare as well. He decided to make muffins...but did not grease the pans well enough. 3 dozen muffin tops are what my kids are now eating for breakfast! So to solve that problem, we went to the corner store during his lunch hour and bought enough slurpies for the whole class.
I tell ya, i was one popular Momma this afternoon!
We went out for dinner to one of our fave local eateries and then back on the porch to watch the day end.

The fireflys were out in full force and Bug sighed as she gave up trying to count them....
'Momma, this was the best day...Summer is finally here!"

Hope they feel the same way tomorrow when i make them clean their rooms all day!

I'm glad that wasn't as painful as you imagined it might be. And I second what Vince said. You don't have any obligation to bring up the subject on a regular basis unless you're responding to a question or comment.

I'm glad to hear you're able to intersperse some good times with the family.
