Grandparent's Day

Today was exhausting. (!!!)  I'm actually just now getting home after teaching/attending meetings all day and then singing at the Good Friday service tonight at church....but let's just take a minute to realize that I am officially on spring break - and it feels nice. :)  I wanted to recap our day.  Today was Grandparent's Day, a day where all rules and regulations kind-of go out the window so that adorable grandparents can tell their grandchildren how proud they are of them at school.  It actually all sort-of fits with grandparents because aren't grandparents the ones who always bend the rules anyway?  It's always more fun at grandma's house right?!  Anyway, we had SOME time for math and to take our spelling tests today, but mostly, we anticipated and talked about  (sometimes ran around the room in excitement) the grandparents:  "When would the grandparents come? How many grandparents would there be? What if I don't have a grandparent come? What if I can't see my grandparent?  What if they don't show up??  What if... Wait!  I think I saw my  grandparent in the hall!...What time is it now?  WHAT TIME IS IT NOW?  IS IT TIME?  IS IT TIME YET?!"  That pretty much sums up my day.  Oh yeah, and then Ethan decided it was a good time to yank out his tooth right before the concert.  Oh and the nurse was out of the building - not to worry. We got the bleeding to stop and I took extra tissues to the concert just to be safe! Phew!   But our concert was exceptional.  There is nothing as sweet and pure as children singing together.  It melts my heart.  <3
