I could've sworn it was just yesterday I was editing photos from Avery's fifth grade play, and here I sit editing photos from Cayden's. Time just keeps on truckin'.
This year, with a slightly older youngest child, I was able to help with the production as a stage manager. While it meant that I was backstage and didn't actually get to watch the play, it also meant that I was at every rehearsal (except one) and could have filled in for anyone and everyone if the need arose.
Honestly, this was one of the most fulfilling volunteer opportunities I have had at this school. Watching those kids (from backstage) on the big night made my heart swell with pride. They're a super special group, and this was such a great way for them to begin their transition out of elementary school {sniff, sniff}.
Oh... and I got to arrange the flowers for the teachers & director and I think I've found what I want to do with the rest of my life. Arrange flowers bouquets. All day, every day.

I did think you were just re-editing. Cayden's all grown up! That school does seem to churn out some extra-special kids. Who couldn't be special after six years in that atmosphere. It's one-of-a-kind.
Flower arrangment sounds good. With my lack of references here it looks like I'll be getting into online surveys or mystery shopping or something!
Oh and could you send Cayden over as a US History tutor? Iris hasn't had five mintues of it. I planned on getting there via Elizabeth I but decided to finish up the Tudors and Stuarts and it's just endless.
"That school does seem to churn out some extra-special kids. It's one-of-a-kind," says the woman who went to said school once upon a time!
Awww! They didn't finish me! I had only two years there! :-) But thank you, that's so sweet!
