This weekend should be generally relaxing. Robert has a track meet this evening that I am attending (third Friday in a row...ugh), and the he works tomorrow evening. We have a church decorating commitment in the morning and Robert has a guitar lesson early afternoon. Sunday is church and an event after the service, and there is a free concert we might attend in the afternoon. That evening Robert will work again. For the most part, with the exception of Robert, our family has a fairly uneventful weekend. It will be the last one for a while.
Next weekend will start with Andrew and Robert volunteering at a Habitat for Humanity build here in town, then Robert will have his guitar lesson. My cousin's daughter has a soccer game here in town so those of us that are available will attend that. That evening is Prom. He and his date are doing dinner before, and Andrew and I are also planning to attend the event to see students. Andrew will be volunteering at the After-prom, and I'll drive Robert's girlfriend home when that is over (literally in the middle of the night). I have done my best to clear our calendar for that Sunday.
The weekend after that is a wedding for us to attend. The kids are spending the night at my mom's house. That Sunday will be Mother's Day, and I suspect I will be busy cleaning the house...which I don't mind at all. I will be grateful to have the time to work on it.
The following weekend is another crazy one. Friday evening we will drive to my hometown to attend the graduation ceremony for a cousin. Saturday morning Thomas should be returning from his school's D.C. trip around 6:00, and he has his first tennis lesson that morning. We will have to get him early from there so that he can attend his Confirmation rehearsal, and the ceremony will take place the next morning. We will be hosting a lunch at our house following that.
That is just four days before Robert graduates...and lots more craziness will happen. I am grateful though, for these days and all our opportunities. I've been blessed to parent these crazy kids, and although I can't believe how fast it has gone and how stressful some of the days have been, it has been wonderful.
