The Mad Dash to the Finish Line


Tomorrow is June 1st.
In our house, it's a very exciting yet very tiring time of the year.
In just 2 sleeps, Lucky will turn 5 years old! (he is SOOO excited! Me, not so much! Check out this pic of him at age 3!) AND it means two weeks of school left. We also have a trip to Cedar Point on Friday, along with Lucky's birthday party on Saturday. The next week is dance recital practices and the recital, along with GIZZARDFEST. I remember back in April when I made grand plans to start packing up my room (which was never unpacked due to all the turmoil at school.) Yeah, I've got 5 or so tubs packed, but SO much more to do! Now, life would not be fun or Gorbetastic if there wasn't a challenge to packing. The challenges are:
1. I have NO clue what I'll be teaching next year. Worse case scenario : 5th graders. Sorry 5th graders, I just don't have that much patience.
2. I have JURY DUTY. Seriously. No really. TOTALLY not cool. How fun to make sub plans for the LAST week of school. UGH. Maybe I can do my report cards while waiting?

At least I have a super cute and funny family.
Some recent hilarious words that were heard:

"Aw nuts, right in the guts!" (Lucky coined this phrase while playing war.)
"Mom, will the kindergarten teachers like a funny kid?" Lucky, a bit nervous about starting school next fall.

Should be a frostingtastic week in our house. Hurray for cake!!
