Mom and Bea's Day

So...my sister's 43rd birthday and Mother's Day fell on the same day. LOL..I had FUN 'teasing' her about turning 48 :) We had a very nice family Sunday. We got there early, had a wonderful homecooked  dinner and then opened some presents. I was completely spoiled on Mother's Day !! We gave Bea a few things to make her home "pretty" and her too. It was a nice day spent w/ my parents and older sister. Happy 43rd Bea and Happy Mother's Day everyone.

JUST DANCE

Jonathon's best friend is a little girl named Sarah Turner. They met 3 years ago when we moved to Nassau County and they were placed in class together at Yulee Primary in the ESE ( exceptional student education) program. They became buds. Her mom and I soon followed. Sarah has a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy and she struggles. Jon just adores her, we all do. She is smart, funny and just awesome despite her painful disability. I encouraged her mom to let Sarah try dancing at a studio near us in Callahan. I am proud to say she had her 2nd recital !! We were invited to attend and we had such a great time. Jon brought Sarah flowers...it was a sweet moment. Kids are amazing and could give grown adults a lesson on loving each other unconditionally and looking only at the ABILITY of what you can do. We were honored to cheer Sarah on.

                                            We hope YOU DANCE always Sarah T.

                                                                      

MOSH

Went on a field trip to the Museum of Science & History with Jon's Kindergarten class. There were 6 K classes total approx 130 5 year olds. I can say we had FUN and I was totally EXHAUSTED. The great thing was there was alot of parent chaperones and we only had 3 kids. Not too bad. Jonathon LOVED it. We hadnt been to MOSH since Jon was in a STROLLER...so he actually got to walk around...touch and explore. Right UP a 6 yr olds alley. I think MOSH will be in our LIST of Family THINGS TO DO this summer. James and Marin havent been in years as well. There is an outside picnic area and we could pack a lunch and then walk to Friendship fountain and the Jax Skyline...YUP...sounds cool to do. Anyway...they had a great MY BODY exhibit and Jon loved it. I have to say it was my fave too. The kids were all squealing. Laughing and totally enjoying trying to pick the giant nose !! Gotta love it
