what my week has been filled with

Pictorial proof that my brain is mush.

The science fair has that effect.   I'm hoping spring break will awake my normal thought processes.  Spring break…and a lot of chocolate!

But the fair was a success. 

All the judges showed up, the t-shirts were a hit, no parents yelled at me, and my kids- despite a few tantrums from yours truly brought on by stress- survived the week too. 

Three cheers for science! 

A few fourth graders.

2nd place winner in his 4th grade class.

Tied for 1st place in the second grade.

My science buddies.

My eldest and youngest children.

One of them was happier than the other to get a picture taken.

Or maybe he just doesn't like being flung around like a sack of potatoes.

The princess.

Not loving the smooches.

Couldn't get the picture to flip the right way, but if you tilt your head, you can appreciate my view almost constantly lately.  This little boy loves his mother.  If he's not in my arms, he's begging to be.
