It's been a while since my last post. Lots of things have happened. We capped off another school year. The end was busy as always, cleaning up to do, goodbyes to take care of, etc. This was perhaps the worst end of a year though, simply for one student. I say worst, but technically in a good way. On the last day of school, I received a wonderful note from a 5th grader. It brought tears to my eyes (yeah no fooling). Then, the same student went to give me a hug as all of the teachers were outside waving goodbye to the students. This kid didn't want to let go and it was gut-wrenching. I did the best I could to contain my emotions so that I wouldn't make them feel worse. I know they'll do great in middle school. They're talented, smart, and work really hard.
Since then, I've been busy. I rested a bit, ran a bunch of errands, etc. Last Wednesday I took the family to Fort Armistead Park near where I grew up in Anne Arundel County. This week is the Sailabration in Baltimore. Well on Wed. the ships were just sailing in. We were there for about 4 hours and were able to see plenty of ships coming in. We all had a great time. Today I took the kids to Baltimore. We saw a few of the ships docked in the harbor, but the main mission was to scope out places to go and see the air show scheduled for tomorrow. I was also able to take the kids to Vacarro's to get a few treats to take home. It was a great day out with the kids, and I can't wait to take them to the air show tomorrow. Pretty soon, I'll be basking in my studies in New Mexico and then on to Los Angeles afterward to see one of my best friends, Brandy.
