Future Artist

Camryn showed off her artistic skills last night while using sidewalk chalk. She very carefully chose each color and took her time creating her masterpiece. I must say that her picture was very beautiful and extremely colorful. She was so engrossed in her artwork that she didn't even notice that both legs were rather blue from her hard work. Too bad that the rain last night erased her artwork. That is ok because we have a whole summer for her to create more wonderful art.

Speaking of summer, tomorrow is my last day of work!!! I am so glad that it is finally here. Too bad that I had to work my last few days with a black eye. Unfortunately, I am the victim of parental abuse. Camryn and I were playing on Sunday morning when she decided that it would be a good idea to throw a block at me - literally out of nowhere. There was an immediate bruise right under my eye. I could tell she felt terrible and she kept saying, "I hurt Mommy. I tiss her boo boo." She has given me lots of kisses, but it hasn't made my black eye go away. Needless to say, it has been an interesting week at work telling everyone that Camryn gave me a black eye. The kids seem to get a kick out of it.

Even though my last day is tomorrow, Camryn's last day at daycare is Friday. I messed up when I told daycare my last day, so she has another day with her friends. I honestly think she is going to miss them! I haven't quite figured out what I am going to do by myself all day, but I am sure I will come up with something!!! I am looking forward to sleeping in seeing as I am walking in the Relay for Life that night until 1:00 AM. I don't remember the last time I stayed up that late, so we will see how it goes. Chris' last day is Tuesday, so we are celebrating with a night in NYC next Thursday while Camryn has a sleep over with Connor and Ella. We have tickets to see Phantom of the Opera that night and we are hoping to get standby tickets to Regis and Kelly on Friday morning. We are really looking forward getting away together and starting off our summer!!! The next time I write, I will officially be on vacation and will hopefully have more exciting things to share about our extra time with Camryn!!
