Here we are again. It’s the last day of school here at Casa Fishbowl, and like every year I’m alternately flying around the house in a panic and wanting to dive into bed and bury my head under the covers.
I will write more about our summer plans later (speaking of which, are you coming out to CBC’s Play Day this afternoon?) but for now I wanted to fulfill a wee tradition I started awhile back… posting photos from the first day and the last day of school.
Some people measure height on those two days (which is also a great idea – wish I’d thought of that a few years ago) but I choose to take a photo.
So here’s a quick look at how the year school year began for us in September 2011, in the end-of-summer shade of green in front of our house. Oh how I love those smiles:
And here is how it ends, today in June 2012, in front of a very sunny apartment:
And with that we bid farewell – forevermore – to grade five and grade seven. Sigh.
Speaking of school days ending, have you seen this story yet? It is lovely.
