After four days of easing into the school routine, I was delighted to realize that "school" can be as fun as summer. It is a joy to see the boys learning new things. John Robert likes his new math tutor. The boys end of year test scores came in and gave us all a nice pat on the back.
By Thursday evening, we were ready to celebrate the week with a different kind of learning. While Denver headed to Mimi's for an evening with Paw Paw, John put the extra seat back in the Sequoia and we picked up Cameron, Quin, and Jill. We went to Atlanta's Shakespeare Tavern to see
The Works of William Shakespeare--Abridged. It was probably the funniest take on Shakespeare I'd ever seen, and the boys loved it, too. It was nice to see the boys sitting at their own table and enjoying each other's company through dinner and the play.
On Friday morning, John and I loaded the car with food and drink and we all went to Stone Mountain for the day. It was wonderful. We road the Skyride and the train. We took a hike and took pictures on the top of the Mountain. The boys did the SkyHike-- a walk three stories high along steel beams. They played in Geyser Tower-- a splash park. We saw a 4-D show and had fun together. Time well spent. We are blessed beyond measure to have this joyful time together.
