Patches on the Knees


You have all seen plenty of pictures of Maxwell climbing. It's what he does.... However, all of that climbing and rough playing comes at a price. To the knees of his pants!! He no longer has any pants that do not have holes in the knees. At home, this doesn't matter too much because he has just switched to wearing shorts. However, at school, he has to wear uniform pants. They wear long pants until May 1 when they are allowed to switch to navy blue shorts. May 1 is so close, and yet so far away! He can't go to school with holes in his knees so tonight, I got busy with my iron and my iron-on patches. We just need to make these last for six more school days..
I signed up all four kids for the summer swim team tonight. They are not excited about the 6 weeks of 7:30 a.m. practices but they always have a good time, with plenty of time to socialize and plenty of exercise.
Josh made it home from New Orleans today and we are thrilled to have him here! I am now officially "off-duty" for the evening. All requests now have to go through Daddy!

Calvin always likes to cook and lately has become very anxious to learn to grill. Tonight, he started simply by grilling some ham steaks for us for dinner. He loved it and they turned out great.
