It's Spring!

My very first Spring and it's finally here! We have gorgeous sunny weather since last weekend. I never thought I would say this, but this is one of the few times in my life that I'm loving the sun. I LOVE it! I love Fall with its crisp air and pretty leaves, and I love Winter for its white snow flakes. Summer - as long as it's below 80F, I'm fine with it. But Spring is all about springing back to life. There is a certain kind of vibrancy and freshness in the air that makes me want to stay outside as much as possible.  Plus the the days are getting longer, the produce section looks so much better and I can put on lighter clothes without having to worry about having blue feet and fingers. Spring break is starting this Friday until next week and I can't wait to discover new places with the boys. Hope you guys will enjoy your Spring break too!

Took the kids to school today. Emir joined a club at his school called Pearson Pride Club that started last Fall to improve his Math and reading skills. The club meets every Monday to Thursday from 8am-9am and today was its last day. Parents were invited to the last meeting and the kids were given a special breakfast treat  which consisted of waffles with strawberries, milk and juices, plus prizes for being consistent in their attendance. I brought the other 2 boys along instead of letting them wait for the school bus and lucky them, they got to have the treat too. I love the school yard. It's big considering the school building itself is pretty small with less then 400 students.
