last day of school

Little did we know yesterday that we were experiencing Rachel's last day at CCA. She came down with a fever last night and tested positive for strep this morning. She's feeling much better tonight after being on an antibiotic but missed awards day. We later found out she received the Benjamin Franklin History Award for excellence in history. That was so fitting! A note to Papa: she's told me she wants you to take her to the Lincoln Museum in Springfield.


Rachel with some friends at field day yesterday.

Micah with Mrs. F. He'll always remember his fifth grade year at Prairieland. "Be a scooper, not a pooper" was his teacher's motto to teach the kids initiative. Today Micah was telling me about the Civil War research he did on the Hunley submarine. I had no idea there were subs in the Civil War. Are you smarter than a fifth grader?
