He Said

Luke: I wish I could have fruit salad. But only the fruits I like. Oranges without the white stuff, pineapple, strawberries, blueberries and banana bread.

Cinnamon Bun Mugs

Brooke had big plans for this morning. She woke up and told us all we cannot come in the kitchen. She made a surprise - a Cinnamon Bun Mug for each of us. Recipe from TikTok.

Last Day Catherine Cook

Well, its over. Our virtual learning experience has come to an end ... at least for THIS school year. The kids are dressed in their virtual learning best - pajamas. These rainbow pants of Brookes have participated in a ton of distance learning the past few months.

We are glad to be done, but sad to miss out on the structure of school and the connection with friends and teachers. The summer and our future in general are pretty confusing given the state of this pandemic. All of the kids actually did pretty great at the virtual learning concept, Brooke seemed to thrive. So at least we end the year without a lot of regret and angst. Looking forward to seeing what the future will bring.

Lukes class ended with a Zoom, where they got to bring their own treat to have during class. What a strange feeling to end Kindergarten without the hugs and goodbyes.  

Lukes Scrambled Eggs

Luke has become a pro at making scrambled eggs. In fact, according to Luke, he makes them better than anyone else.
