Bittersweet...Last Week of School is days away

0, 1, 2...The school year is almost through
3, 4, 5...Our kiddos have started to thrive
6, 7, 8...Each one is truly great
9 and 10...I wish we could do it again!

Today is the last Friday of the school year. It's a bittersweet time. As much as we look forward to the summer, just like the kiddos do, we grieve seeing them each day and watching them grow.

If you enjoy working with children, you understand what I'm talking about. They are caterpillars when the school year starts and by the end of the year, they burst forth as butterflies of beautiful colors. Is the end of the school year bittersweet for you too?
