Whew!

Well, there is not a lot to report from the ol'Rettig Household. We are pretty much in the throws of summer band. Two weeks down-- one to go. Junior High Summer band is coming up and then school starts. There was big relief in the Rettig house yesterday because Bailee got her letter saying that she does, in fact, get to have 2nd grade teachers. Now, this may sound strange to most of you, but Leah got her teacher letter a long time ago and Bailee has wanted hers ever since. She has been very worried that she would not be put in a class. Consoling her has helped some... no major freak outs about it or anything... but the look of relief on her face was pretty cute yesterday. She is excited to be in a "switch class". (which to you non2nd grade moms means she has 2 academic teachers)
We had our band's marchathon and pool party yesterday. It was really nice and the girls had a great time. The girls were worn out yesterday from swimming and hanging out with the band. i see naps in our futures today. I will probably be a good mom and show them how to nap properly. You do what you gotta do.

Hope you are well.

They switch kids in the 2nd grade already, that is CRAZY! I am teaching 4th self-contained. My own 20 nine year-olds all day. It is going to be interesting.
