It's been a very long week, and there is still so much more to go! This weekend is Thomas's senior prom, and of course Mother's Day. It's never been my favorite holiday, and I intend to just rest from this week and get ready for the next week of craziness. That is the thing about May. While it isn't as crazy as some years because we only have one kid in school and not three, the fact that so many things haven't happened for the last two years makes this year seem more active. I'm also working full time at a school where there are plenty of activities happening as well.
Catherine was home for the last week, and work has been pretty stressful for her. There have been some challenges at work for her, and a few other issues have come up for her. Her semester is finished, and I think she'll be in and out over the course of the summer. It's a bit of a new phase, but we are learning.
Thomas has had an pretty amazing week. On Monday, we visited Wright St. I was glad that I was able to see the campus, and I think he'll really enjoy it there. Last evening he had his final concert band concert of his high school career. Since it was May 4th, they played some Star Wars songs. It was a fun finish. He still has a steel band concert next week, and then there is an event at an amusement park next weekend. He is spending today and tomorrow at the state FFA convention where he was selected to be a member of the State FFA band. We are so proud of how well things have gone for him with FFA these two years, and I only wish he could've started earlier.
It's so hard to believe this is all almost over. I'm so grateful for all of the opportunities that my children have had, and I'm so incredibly grateful to be their mother. I knew there are many transitions coming, and I look forward to getting to know them as adults. Hopefully we will make many family memories this summer!
