Hello, how are you? I've been swamped this week, I guess, or more than that, uninterested in sharing what I have in my brain. But last night we went to Pre-K graduation and it warmed my little heart. I mean, just look at this:
Kills you dead, right? DEAD. CUTE. And he got the certificate for Best Reader. :) I knew that's what he'd get. He IS the best reader EVAR. *mom pride* *preening*
What upsets me is the anticipation of having to go through this whole "graduation" thing again 3 more times before we're out of high school. I know they'll have Kindergarten graduation, further proving (like we don't already know) that the bay-bees are growing UP!!! ...and then 8th grade graduation, THEN a real graduation from high school! Crazy. I only feel worse for MY parents, who had to do 6th grade and THEN 8th grade, because we moved to a new town in between the two. (Although they didn't have to endure the little kid versions. I think those MUST be the hardest. Well, no, I take it back -- high school graduation will probably be AWFULLY HARD as they'll (hopefully) be leaving the NEST, zOMG... we can't even think about that yet.)
New Topic!! We're going to (great) grandma's house! Leaving tonight or tomorrow, I can't decide and it's been left up to me. It depends on whether I can get all my laundry done, and then packed, before 5 pm today. I'll leave work early today, attend Kindergarten Orientation (how neatly that lined up!), then take the kids home and attempt to wash, fold, and pack everything up while they destroy the place. Then we'll sic them on Nanny's house and they'll likely destroy IT, too! I tell you what, we leave a TRAIL wherever we go these days. There are always THINGS -- toys, shoes, fridge magnets -- decorating the floor at our house. ALWAYS. Here's an example -- don't mind the adorable moment in the foreground, I'm uploading this to show you the MAYHEM behind them:
And that's nothing -- you should see the kitchen. Happy Memorial Day, everyone.

my mom just told me that "yat" is someone from NOLA ... WHY didnt I know this??? I am SURE you did .. you know like "where ya at?"
anyway, I thought of that when you were talking about your Yatt ... :)
will it make you feel better if I take a picture of our house and the "trail of things" we have going on?? but thanks for sharing yours, nonw I dotn feel bad!!
hope you have nice weekend, and yay for AJ on his first graduation and his award!!!
So we don't do a kindergarten graduation. Maybe because it is public school? And my kids didn't attend preschool, so no pre-K graduation either. Just high school for us.
I can't wait to see HP. Trying to convince Husband to watch the first five movies, so he can see it with me. They are movies meant to be enjoyed by both of us. Or something.
We visited grandparents too. I tried to minimize the trail. Our house looks much like yours on any given day at any given minute.
Oh, that picture just broke my heart! Twee little robes & hats - just too much! I don't think that my heart will survive.
I cannot WAIT for Harry Potter. I'm getting very impatient. I may even brave the midnight showing!
Also... I got a VERY FANTASIC package in the mail on Friday! Totally made my day... I will be posting about it soon, because boy did you send me lots of cuteness!
Hope you had a great time at Nanny's, my friend! Yes, that graduation picture was a killer -- good lord! I think I just had my first, "Please don't grow up" moment! My house has the toy trail, and I have always been a neat freak. It hurts me occasionally, and makes me less patient with the Big Boy toys, but I try to be rational!
