last days of the 2011-2012 school year

The last days of school have been bittersweet for Ava and Quinn. They are excited about summer (pool, water slide, and hanging out with friends) but they are really going to miss their classmates and mostly their teachers. I had each of them write a card for their teachers the morning of the last day. Ava came up with a poem the night before for Mrs. Emmons.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Mrs. Emmons is sweet
and school is too.

Quinn said that he would use the same poem for Mrs. Lamoreaux but in the morning he had already written the first three words all by himself.

I wish that
I could stay in
school all day.

We feel so blessed that our children love their school and teachers so very much. Thank you ladies!!

Ava's class released butterflies the day before. Ava was asked to set them free. The highest honor.
