When we lived in TX, school started in mid-late August and finished near the end of May. Here, we started the day after Labor Day and don't finish until June 22nd! But, we get more days off throughout the year here, and it is nice to have the breaks once in awhile. Not setting the alarm is wonderful! So, in honor of the four day weekend we are having now, because it's the end of the quarter and semester, I told the girls they could have a little slumber party tonight. Gracie invited 4 girls and 2 of them can come. Ellie invited one friend and she is coming. Unfortunately, Gracie is coughing some and even went to take a nap on her own after lunch today. None of us have been sick in such a long time. I hope she feels better after getting some rest. Her only symptom is coughing. One of the reasons I wanted to have this slumber party is to help Gracie develop her friendships. But I don't want her the friendships to be so close that she gives them her germs!
2-4 inches of snow is in our forecast for tomorrow. We're supposed to go to a surprise party for a friend's birthday tomorrow night. Monday Joe and I are going to see the Washington Wizards play the Boston Celtics with some of his classmates. I'm excited about going to the game, despite the Wizards not so great record this season, but we'll also get to see former Carolina and Michigan State players while we're there!
I can't wait to hear this song!
