I remember reading an article in the paper years before I had kids that said "All children are philosophers before kindergarten." It was about children leaving bwehind their creativity when they enter school. That planted the seed of homeschooling in my brain. I love seeing your kids' creativity.

I like the humor in the beginning of the post: "So, did you have a galactic Mother’s Day?" and then finding out that was your son's card for you. This was clever way of showing hopefulness for your daughter: "My fingers are crossed as far over as they’ll go." Congratulations to H getting in to that awesome summer camp. Everyone is thriving.
