school's out for summer.
which means school's out for us mommas too.
on the last day of school five of us hit the road for some celebrating of our own.
five moms (& co-teachers), who have (& teach) fifteen kids between us.
our kids' poems had been recited, final assessments taken, and papers turned in.
we had completed a year's worth of home day lessons (it really happened).
what seemed impossible in august, was cheerfully counted as successes in may.
so we kissed our smartypants kiddos goodbye for a bit, and giddily drove to bastrop for a few days.
we slumber partied, swam, slid, exhaled leisurely, lounged fireside,
shared, danced, laughed, cried, prayed, dined, sipped, read, challenged, planned,
celebrated miracles, explored, and completely relaxed. it was such a gift.
and then upon returning home we scooped up some favorite students
and went on a day trip to a nearby waterpark.
we celebrated, laughed, and slid some more. and it was also such a gift.
