We are already getting into Summer mode over here! Our morning routine leaves much to be desired, and the kids even missed the bus once because we weren't paying attention to the time. Morning cartoons are already beginning and home reading has become more of a last minute thing before school. While therre is much to love about the month of June, I can sense that we are all eagerly looking toward the slower paced Summer days running barefoot around the acreage and eating fresh garden berries and juicy water melons.
For now I am enjoying watching Oliver discover new things around the acreage. He couldn't wait to show me the little birds nest that he discovered while mowing the lawn with Grampa. My guess is that it blew out of a tree during one of the recent storms. When Ollie isn't exploring you can find him in the kiddie pool fully clothed (ugh!) or playing with the hose. Grampa went out to investigate after hearing "cold! cold! COLD!" to find Oliver laying down in the cool water in his overalls. Half his wardrobe is hung over the deck railings and will hopefully be dry by tomorrow.
Hyrum's teacher sent me the sweetest message today to let me know that he was one of only three students to complete his work today and she was very pleased with him. It made my mamma heart happy to hear that he is respectful and kind at school. Sometimes it can be hard to send our little birds out into the world. I spend a lot of time worrying and wondering, so it was nice of her to write home and let me know!
