Almost to the End

Jacob gets out of school tomorrow. I think the majority of moms I know are sad to see the school year end, but happy that the madness will stop. Why does everything need to be crammed into the last week? I'm guilty of it too. I just held a thank you reception for the room reps at the school on a day when the fith grade was at their pool party, the third grade had their Roman Feast and half the fourth grade was in Austin for a capitol field trip. Was it surprising my turnout was crappy? No. Did I have much choice? No. It's the last week of school and there just aren't enough days anymore.

The No Doubt concert was great. Really fun. Love that the band is back together. It was very obvious they tried to play down Gwen's solo stardom. She only had two costume changes and they played pretty much straight for 90 minutes. Great video montages of their early days. Played all the favorites. Trip to Dallas was quick and uneventful. We got back to SA as fast as we could for tball, pictures, birthday parties, etc.

Taking Lucas to the doctor today. Looks like he got stung by something. His face is swollen between his eyes and on his forehead. It will probably go away on it's own but this is day two and I'm too nervous to let it go any longer.
