We LOVED Toph's teacher, Ms. Chambrone. She started off subbing for his class, after his teacher went on medical leave, and we were fortunate to be able to have her for the rest of the school year. Toph really blossomed under her care. Ms. Chambrone was able to find the balance between pushing the kids to do better and learn more AND loving them. Everyone could tell that she loved our kids, and they loved her back. Many kids had to come back several times each afternoon to give her hugs--Hannah included. We're hoping that she gets to stay at Creekside next year too--I think she is too.
But, SCHOOL IS OUT!!! We're looking forward to summer vacation. We're taking swim lessons, my parents are coming for a visit, the kids and I are going to Fresno to visit friends and cousins, and we have MANY fun activities planned when we're here. It will be so nice to be NOT on the "normal" routine and to have a break from homework. Of course, the kids may not feel the same way, because we're starting our own home routine--"school" and chores are a part of that routine every day. But for now, we're going to just be grateful that summer vacation has started!
