Then I dropped the boys off at Memorial Park with the whiffle bat and I ran to the Co-op, then came and picked them up.
Then we visited Brianna for the last time. While we were there, Nico asked her if she wanted to join us for pizza and she said no she had a lot of packing and dishes to do. So Nico said: "How about Daddy and I can help pack and you and Mommy can wash dishes?" And that's what we did! She still wasn't able to join us for pizza because her parents came into town that night.
We said goodbye to Brianna, then went to the Library. After that we came home and ate lunch. We had pizza that night and I then I left the boys at home to go see Allicia at her roller derby game. My voice was hoarse afterward from all the cheering. She is really good.
On Tuesday Nico brought his Day of Learning project to school. He carried it in front of him, the trifold Open so that everyone who walked by would see it. And it worked. Someone said as she was passing, "Cool project!"
That night there was an open house at the school so everyone could view the projects. There was only one other 1st grader that had participated, but lots from other grades. Guy and Nico went.
When Nico started out to work on his project, this is how it went down:
"I'm not going to fill up all the space"
As he's writing info about the Purple Martin in his lab notebook: "I think I'm just going to do 5 birds."
As he's writing info about the Purple Martin on the project board: "Actually, I think I'm just going to do one bird."
I was very proud of him! He got to present his project to his class, too.
Today was the Father's Day zoo trip. Guy met Nico's class at the zoo.
Kookaburras! How did we miss these last time? Guy told me that Nico sat and stared at them for 5 minutes.
Nico has been coming home with all sorts of things from school, folders, notebooks, books that his teacher was giving away, summer reading packets... it's getting to be about that time. One more week and it's done!
