Nice Break

Basketball season officially ended about two weeks ago and it has been so nice to have some free evenings and weekends. We were able to have a nice quick two night trip to Minnesota where the boys were able to see a Timberwolves vs Golden State NBA game and had lots of fun swimming and hanging out at the Mall of America. It was such a nice little family break and then I was able to spend the rest of spring break home with them hanging out and doing little fun activities. Tonight we had baseball sign up and in the next few weeks Spring football starts. Back to crazy nights and weekends of two sport seasons and being on the run. It has been so much fun watching the boys grow this year and develop into wanting to do sports and team activities and work so hard at everything they are doing. They have both made tons of friends and sports have really given them more confidence I feel especially being new to the school this year. If there is ever a day they don't want do to sports I will be sad but until them we will support them in the things they want to try and to stay active. Payton had great conferences and we are really proud his reading has improved over this year and he is on track. Parker also had great conferences and with his IEP in place he has been doing really well. I keep waiting for the ball to drop and something happen but he amazes me with how far he has came socially this year adapting with the many changes this year has brought. I can't say enough how much I appreciate our school and the resources and positive support we have received. We have lots of fun planned for the summer and lots of chaos as well :). Until then I have learned over this past year to not dwell on the past, enjoy the present and be positive with whatever the future brings. On a side note we got notification that Presley got placed for 4 year preschool at the same school the boys are at which is great, one year where all three kids will be in one building!
