Yesterday was Madalyn's last day of 2nd grade and Kalea's last day of Kindergarten. This was a big day for them, so Erica and I tried to celebrate accordingly. Erica made each of the girls their favorite meal, and then we topped it off with ice cream!
I don’t even remember my last day of high school or college...let alone 2nd grade or Kindergarten. It may be that I have a terrible memory, but I doubt that many people remember these dates. However, I’m trying to teach myself and my girls that it’s important to celebrate the small things and the big things of life. It’s a discipline to celebrate. I’m trying to remember to slow down enough and plan ahead enough for these celebrations. When we do, it makes us appreciate life.
