Nine months ago we were here - first day of school
and then in the blink of an eye it is June - last day of school.
For Matteo's last day, he enjoyed sprinkler time with friends and more chips than his belly could handle, though he did try to fit in as much as possible as having chips is far and few in this house (except for parties).
The old cliche "time flies when you are having fun" is so true - I guess that is why it has been around all these years :-) Though school (for me) was not always fun, I do indeed think Matteo had nothing but a wonderful time and he certainly has come a long way - now being able to write his name (upper and lower case), all the letters of the alphabet pretty much, use scissors and so much more he has learned along the way.

And so we made a big to-do about Matteo being a "graduate" from 2 day preschool and now going to go to 3 day preschool as the free 5 day preschool does not apply to us. I have mixed feelings about this, feeling as though a 5 day schedule would be good for him, but then realizing our friends who enjoyed that 5 day preschool last year missed out on many library opportunities that we enjoyed. So no loss with 3 day and I'm sure next year will be action-packed anyway. Until then here it so catching fireflies, getting as wet as often as possible and just soaking up the heat :-) Because like school, we blink and time flies.
I think I"ll keep my eyes wide open for a bit to avoid the passage of too much time.
