we are in west virginia visiting family and this is what a nine year old Lily looks like
the last time we swam in this pond surrounded by the purple irises she was much smaller
seeing her get older and bigger so fast pulls on my mama heart strings like no other
happy monday and happy july friends!!

today she will start baking camp for the week
last week however, she enjoyed the first week out of school without routines by waking up after 9am every morning
on this particular morning she actually woke up at 11am
happy monday friends!

school is out for summer!
having some down time in her room before heading out to the second end of the year celebration this weekend
happy monday friends!
around here. so long third grade
well friends, here we are
today is the last day of third grade
although i am so ready for summer break, i kind of wish third grade could go on forever
it’s been the most wonderful school year so far
Lily had the most amazing teacher/class and my heart is breaking already for when she will have to say goodbye later today
there will be many tears for sure (there always are)
Lily has grown so much this school year
not just in height (4″) but emotionally, artistically, academically… all with such confidence
she has risen all year!
we are so very proud of her
now if only time could just take it a bit easier on me
happy friday and happy weekend friends!
spring is still winning
Lily season on our front yard
when little cousins come to visit
miami memories
spain memories
kitchen poetry sessions
last monday of third grade
last tuesday of third grade
last car pick up selfie of third grade
last thursday of third grade
homemade end of the school year teacher gifts
stronger every day
these three have been riding to school every morning since we moved here during Lily’s kindergarten year. Next year there will be less one because she will be in middle school. we now have a rising sixth grader, a rising fourth grader and a rising third grader. love these vibrant girls

a picture of a selfie she took with her polaroid camera that she got for her birthday
this is her last week of school and i cannot believe today will be her last monday of third grade
time needs to take it easier on me….

as third grade slowly comes to an end, this is how i will remember her
confident, strong, more independent, creative, funny, smart, positive, kind…. all with a small side of attitude and crimped hair from the previous night’s braids
i can honestly say that i will wholeheartedly miss third grade
happy monday friends!

at her ballet dress rehearsal on thursday
her ballet spring recital was yesterday afternoon and what a joy it was to see her take the stage
she has grown so much this scholastic year
in so many ways
including ballet ways
happy monday friends
