Happy Sunday! Our family spent the weekend in San Francisco for my son's lacrosse tournament. It was such a great weekend. The game was in a park, in a true San Francisco neighborhood, which meant really tough parking!! We had the true city experience. The best part, however, was Joelle's absolute excitement seeing the Golden Gate Bridge. She shared that they are learning about bridges in class and she was thrilled to see the Golden Gate and the Bay Bridge. This was a timely trip for sure. The reason I share is because I love seeing what we do each day through my daughter's eyes. What you do matters more than you realize and the kids are taking it all in. You are all rockstars! 

We have a lot of things coming up. Thank you to Shannon and Christina for working on I Love Reading Month. We have added Jesse Bennett to our author visit list. Yay! See below for the dates. Here is the link to the book order document to share with families: Book Orders
