Charlie's first time ever writing his name. He doesn't know the letter names, so you have to say, "Okay, write Charlie's letter. Now Sister Hovey's letter. Now Alice's letter. Now Ruby's letter. Now Luke and Leslie's letter. Now Ichabod's letter. Now everything's letter."

Grace on her last day of 3rd grade.
Also our final morning with the Fairbanks kids.
They did an egg drop for the last day of school. She reminded me at the last second, so we shoved an egg and a bunch of wadded-up napkins into these styrofoam bowls and closed it up with packing tape. Her UFO was filled with egg yolk by the end of the day:(
Alice waiting at urgent care.
