So today was Emmett's last day of elementary school (5th grade). I remember writing about his first day at Oceanview elementary on this board almost six years ago. I'm working this afternoon so I'm missing the graduation, but I dropped him off this morning and made sure I visited all his previous teachers and thanked them. It was nice to check in with them.
I don't know what we're going to do with him this summer. EM doesn't want him back at his usual summer camp because it's very near her psycho-Ex.
She's on disability leave through the end of the month so he can poke around for the next two weeks. Plus he's got baseball tournaments (which slop over onto weekdays) and he's officially a 10 y.o. All Star (separate from both the regular season
and
the tournament team) which will occupy some time in July.
I'm not sure how we're going to swing it. He's still too young to be left completely on his own during the day, but I'm not sure what kind of camp experience he'll want to do anymore.

Did he already do circus camp? That seems like it'd like up with his physical abilities.

No way! I mean, I know it's true, but...
Also, congratulations, and no help at all on the camp dilemma.
Hec! Could you please find me photos of mid-length to long bobs with bangs? I'm kinda-sorta thinking of cutting my hair.
Yes, ma'am. Though anything longer than shoulder length is techincally a pageboy not a bob.
So what length are we talking? Between chin and shoulder? Just above shoulder? Past shoulders? Or longer?

He did circus camp two summers ago, and it is conveniently located on our block. But he did the younger kids school and he'd need to go to the
other
circus arts place, which he's less familiar with. Also, it may be too late to sign him up for anything. But he did speak fondly of doing trapeze.

Shocking, isn't it?

I'm hoping his Mom's camera is working since he was looking very cool and cute. With his hair and his fedora he was kind of working a Kid Rock look. Which, admittedly, isn't exactly au courant but he's cuter than Kid Rock.
he's cuter than Kid Rock.
Also nicer. And probably cleaner, as a rule.
Yay Emmett! Makes me a little wistful though. Alex probably would have liked him very much. They share a love of baseball, music and money in common.
Congratulations to Emmett! Good luck finding him a summer camp.
I replaced the tea kettle and bought a storage unit that will hopefully fit over the toilet so we can have some storage in our teeny new bathroom. TCG's brother and his family are in town for a visit and we're supposed to be heading over to see them soon, except TCG isn't home yet, I look awful, and I am absolutely fall down tired.
I'm in love with this woman and I've never even seen her. [link]
