As Luka finishes up his first year of Kindergarten, this is the first time we have dealt with the end of the "school year" (well, since we were kids). He will have a special graduation ceremony on Thursday, May 29th and will then start "camp" at school where they do tons of field trips (Denver Art Museum, NCAR, Fountains, Pottery Making and more!), until we leave for France. He is excited about camp and about France! He is really a "big" boy now. He is reading so well and also loves numbers. He is going to attend a new public school in the district next year that is dedicated to integrating arts into the daily curriculum.
Axel is growing so much too, he changes day by day. He is such a great talker and very perceptive. He adores reading and singing and dancing, so we are excited about him going to the arts school someday too! He was really sad ski season was over, but next year will come fast enough. He loves talking to his grandparents on Skype and can't wait to see them!
Both Axel and Luka (and Mmommy and Ddaddy) were so happy to have Grandma (Eve's mom) visiting us in early May. Mommy had to work too much, but otherwise it was a wonderful visit! Grandma and Mommy had a great 9K race on Mother's Day.
