Tuesday-- Genius strikes- hello! Craigslist! by that evening, have procured bike for Little Bro -- $10.
Wednesday -- procured bike for Big Bro-- $20. Practice rides begin- they are kind of awful.
Thursday, -- scheduled 'family meeting' at DHS with Mom does not go as planned, when she neglects to show. We are all disappointed.
Friday- out to Porter for High school graduation of our 2 nieces. Is a lovely ceremony, until Lil Brother will NOT keep quiet. I haul him out the hallway for a time out; discipline is decided as early bedtime, no dessert. Which is of course, the WORST EVER.
Saturday- Hauled ice chest + Lola the Adventure Dog + the boys out to Grand Lake for a day of wading, eating, shrieking and boating with friends. 6 adults, 7 kids, 2 dogs, 1 pontoon boat = wet and wild time.
Sunday- slept in (them till 8, us till 10). Riverside Park and a family bike ride made for an idyllic Sunday evening.
Monday, the 21st- after school, bike rides until dinner, Little Bro adapts art smock into Super Boy cape, is awesome.
Tuesday, 22nd -- LAST DAY OF SCHOOL- gifts of roses and tags that read "Thanks for helping me BLOOM" are handed out to teachers.
(yes, its via Pinterest)):
Hugs all around. The boys leave without a backward glance, backpacks stuffed full of papers, art supplies and snacks.

More bike rides, a couple of crashes, playing in the sprinkler, etc. Parents meeting for a camp we hope to get them into.
Summer is here! Ready or not.
