End of term

Here's some of what's happening:

• C is going to be painting Hannibal's crossing of the Alps with elephants onto a wooden sword for a school project.
• It's a really good thing that C likes school projects so much.  Otherwise, life would be terrible.
• D has made some progress on bouldering.
• My husband is working on making a chalk bag for rock climbing.  (You put chalk on your hands to keep from slipping.)  He's been using C's sewing machine.  
• This morning, Baby T was wanting to speed up our departure for the grocery store (a favorite destination).  I eventually realized why she'd grabbed a couple of reusable grocery bags--they were for me to use! 
• The cafeterias are closing soon.  Waaaaaaaah!
• The kids have another 2.5 weeks of school left.
