How does it happen that it feels like I just dropped Ryan off at school and it is already two o’clock and I have to pick him up in a little over an hour? I don’t know how the days go by so fast, but they sure do fly by.

Yesterday Ryan brought home papers that were almost all 100%. Yea, I think he is starting to understand he needs to take his time when he’s doing his work.

We had a fun time at the circus. It was actually under a big top tent. It was a one ring circus on a much smaller scale than the one we went to last year that was in the big arena, was three rings and was packed with people. Matt and I joked that this is where the performers come to learn the trade and then they join the big one. But really, it was actually nice to have it on a small scale. We couldn’t even keep track of everything that was happening at the three ring one. Here are the pictures.

Notice those dark gray clouds? It has been raining like crazy lately. However, we have been so lucky to not get wet. We got in the tent and it started pouring. Then it stopped while we walked to the car afterwards. Then once we got into the restaurant afterwards it started pouring again. Then it let off a bit while we got into the car until we got home. The same has been happening in the mornings. It pours a ton, stops, I go for my walk , and then it starts raining again. I’m not sure how we have been getting so lucky.

Well, I better go fold some laundry before Ryan gets home and we have to do homework, play, dinner, reading and bed. Matt is out looking for a stuffed cow for his sermon illustration on Sunday.
