Between now and then is a maddening schedule of activities, field trips, 5th grade moving up ceremony (so much for saying NO to tasks!?!), and house guests for most of it.

You have so many artistic talents that I can't believe you won't be so busy after school is out. I wish you the best, of course! It was much fun with my friends. Old friends that all live far apart and can continue conversations of months ago are just the best!

Literature is my link to sanity. And yoga. :) And running. :) And a few more beautiful things besides. :)GatheringBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477710897574769648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-637195657866937232013-06-10T03:19:46.918-06:002013-06-10T03:19:46.918-06:00Sounds like your one book was a great choice!
