Easter Celebration I

Though I know priests normally dole out penance, I believe that I have done my fair share at work. If things such as HIPPA didn't exist, this blog would be way more interesting AND funny. I'm glad work is behind me for now and I can enjoy the rest of Easter week.

Today Julia had her Easter Celebration. She is our holiday girl. If something has been declared a holiday, she is ready to celebrate. If only Cazin felt the same way. He totally rained on her parade today and I'm sure the TKA class didn't enjoy hearing him cry during the egg hunt. I was having flashbacks of Julia's summer ballet camp performance. Me trying to shush Cazin while trying to simultaneously keep Ella happy and snap photos of Julia. I cannot wait till his 4th year of life comes around. Because year 3 is pretty rough. He almost had me in tears as well today as other moms looked on either out of pity or disgust at my inability to control my child. Not even bribery with cookies and juice boxes would clam him down. Even though I can hold my own with mean surgeons at work, I have certainly met my match: a 3 year old boy. But God bless Julia and her sunny disposition or rather obsession with parties.

And her great artwork. We finally were allowed to take home her self portrait that has been hanging outside the classroom. It is by far my favorite piece and I plan on setting aside some funds to frame that baby right. In Kinderart this past month the class studied Leonardo DaVinci or as Julia refers to him "the one who did Mona Lisa." Their project was to complete a self portrait using chalk. Since it was a few weeks ago, the only other tidbit of information that Julia shared was "he did draw a picture of the Last Supper."

Tomorrow is Cazin's Easter Celebration and I'm there will be no tears then. From either of us.

This is where Cazin preferred to stand during the festivities. Crying.
And pushing my buttons by standing so close to the drive.
