Step Up

Today was the last day of the school year. It is with mixed emotions that I heralded its arrival.

On the one hand it marks accomplishments: Gus thrived academically - nailing all four book reports with perfect 100 scores, acing all but 2 spelling tests, and mastering long division; while Niko showed promise in mathematics and gained some understanding of reading.

As a final school event, we watched each class "step up" to the next grade. The boys were promoted to fifth and first grades. Hard to believe.

Of course, on the other hand, today marks the beginning of summer. And that means I'm stuck with them until September!
