The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind of activity for the boys and I, as school was winding down for the year. Swimming galas, parties, programs, etc. made for a busy but very fun and memorable way to end a very good year of school. Jensen's class was studying the Victorian era and had a dress up day where they were supposed to be someone from that era. Jensen had been reading about a Liberian Prince, Kaboo, also known as Samuel Morris who, though he lived in that era, was not your typical Victorian. Still, Jensen was so amazed by his life and the way God rescued him from certain death that he decided to be Kaboo for a day and played the part from his heart.
We thoroughly enjoyed attending the celebration evening for years 1 -5. They sang some songs and each child was honored for something unique about him/her. In some schools it's all about academics and grades but I feel privileged to have my children in a school that is concerned about both academics and character. I got teary eyed more than once during the evening!
It's hard to believe the year is over already. It was a stretching time for all of us in a very good way.
