What a day! Let me just say I cannot believe it
has been a full school year, Finley and Grey’s first school year. What a
wonderful thing for them. It is great to see how they have grown and the
friendships they have made. They were blessed with wonderful teachers, staff
and people who cared about them. Today, as on most days, they played and had a
blast!

“Play is the highest form of research.” Albert
Einstein
Well, today was definitely filled with research!
First, the pre-k classes got to spend the
morning on the “big kid playground” armed with squirt bottles and bubbles.
And the teachers were VERY good sports!
They even chased Mrs. Gutierrez into the tree!
“People tend to forget that play is serious.” David Hockney, artist
“The most effective kind of education is that a child should play amongst lovely things.” Plato
Bubbles, bubbles, everywhere!
“The day I see a leaf is a marvel of a day.” Kenneth Patton, poet
Friends.
Then, of course, we all had to stop and observe
the recycling truck as it emptied four giant containers into the truck.
Next step – popsicles. The kids look a little dazed
and wilted, but not for long!
After popsicles the kiddos changed into jammies
to eat popcorn and watch movies, “Nemo” was first. Then some chose to go and play on the playground . . . in jammies!
And, how could it be time to go? Lots of hugs
and kisses and wishes to “see you soon!”
Happy hearts.
