TWENTY-ONE

Chocolate biscotti. My whole family loves biscotti. Theo kept sneaking pieces. They didn't last two days. 

 2020 week twenty-one. Reopening week one.

Dress rehearsal 2020. Also her last day of school. Summer wont be much different from the past two months but "summer" is a magical word and it feels full of potential anyway.

My mom sent me a few old photos this week. This is my mom (far right) with her sister and brother and my Grandma Ronnie.

Newborn me. 

Baby me and my older sister. 

I compiled a list of 50 poems the kids have memorized or partly memorized over the past few years. I sorted them into levels of difficulty and it's our summer project. To pass off a level they have to be able to say every poem in that level and every poem in the preceding level. Then I'll get them a special candy from the store. When they can say all 50 (including the really hard ones) we'll take a trip to Target for a lego set or something larger.

Quotes

I guess no one said anything funny this week except Matthew.

Matthew-*getting really worked up about something not that big of a deal*
Me- You should just not let things bother you so much.
Matthew- You would make a great allergist... Pollen is making you sneeze? Just don't let it bother you!
