Water movement experiments, excavation site digging, chemistry tests, planetarium, it was a very busy day for my little man!!! I came home exhausted but immediately told Kyle how extremely lucky I felt to be able to go with Benjamin on his field trip and be there all day with him. I just have to say I love being a stay-at-home mom and being a going-on-field-trips-mom!!! The best part was the VIP treatment from Benjamin - He was so thrilled to have me there. When I got there he told everyone that barely walked by him "My mom's going with us". He held my hand when the lights darkened in the planetarium. And he wanted to make sure I got to see every single thing. I asked Kyle how many more years will he be excited that I am at his school. He said maybe one. Fighting back tears I humffffed away saying "I hope you're wrong"
Oz has a great but very simply philosophy - that everybody had a heart, that everybody had a brain, that everybody had courage. These were the gifts that were given to people on this earth, and if you used them properly, you reached the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. And that pot of gold was a home. And a home isn't just a house or an abode..., Its people. People who love you and that you love. That's home. - Ray Bolger aka the Scarecrow

Parker is in 4th grade and 10 years old and still LOVES me to go with him!! It doesn't have to end!
I'm going to have to go with Kyle. Shawn still acknowledges my existence, but doesn't announce it to everyone. He still allows me a little hug before getting on the bus, though. They grow up fast, either way.
