Last Day of Summer

Tomorrow is the first day of a new school year. We are all so excited. Maelle is the most excited. She would have happily skipped summer vacation altogether and just kept going to school. I'm also ready to get back to work and a structured routine. It was a really great summer, though. Today we noticed that Maelle's sunflower is finally in bloom. She brought it home at the end of last school year. It lived in a cup in the sunroom for a couple of weeks until we decided it ought to be outside. We planted it in the side garden and waited for it to grow and bloom. It felt right that it would choose today to bloom. It was a fitting way to say goodbye to a beautiful summer!
