Class of 2022?

Is that right? She'll graduate high school in 2022? My goodness...
Here she is with some of her classmates and buddies Nathan, Carter and Luke, looking a little coy.....
hmmmmmmmmm

Happy Graduation Day!

It seems strange that there would be a graduation day for a class that is just going back to preschool in the fall, but, whatever - I was there with my camera and tears on my cheeks anyway. Here she is after receiving her certificate and shaking the Directors hand on stage - getting congrats from her little brother. He is very proud of her as well!

School Songs"...down came the rain..."


Here she is - after her first year of preschool at Here Wee Grow - she has finally decided to join the group in the singalongs! We have watched many concerts where she would just stand and stare at us while we tried to encourage her to sing with her classmates - well, it finally clicked on Graduation Day! She sang every song and did all the hand motions too! What a great job she did!

Sprinkler Fun


Nothing is better than a run around the yard while the sprinkler is going. Well, that is, of course, nothing is better than a drink from the sprinkler while your little brother is trying to figure out how it works....

Beech Tree


With permission, we dug up a small beech tree and birch tree from Andy's parents land in the Adirondacks. Here the kids are next to the beech - this will be an interesting marker as they all grow older....

Family Portrait


Heidi's first family drawing -
There's Heidi in red on the left, then Daddy with the long legs and blue hair and then Mommy with the smiling baby in her belly and Erik, the frowning one in Mommy's arms.
How sweet.
She brought this home the last week of preschool - what a difference a year has made in her abilities.
