My itty bitty baby ain’t so itty bitty anymore.
Because…
(Anybody need a pizza!?)
*****
What a year you have had, my Little Man.
Full to the BRIM of joy, adventure, learning, and growth.
And, of course, a whole lotta laughs. Cause that’s how we roll…
And so here goes my Ode To the Little Sir William
version 9.0!
*****
Hip Hip Hooray! (x9!)
Little Sir…
My darling Littlest went and did it…
He turned a whole ‘nother year older!
(Sob!)
Callooh Callay!
It’s Your
We LOVE you
like a Wright boy loves to goof in the mud!
Like a duck loves the water!
Like the trees love the winding stream!
Like a bowtie loves your dapper self!
Golly.
We just love and cherish you so much, Little Man.
You, and all of your tender, silly, imaginative, brilliant ways!

Goober
Who cracks us up every single day with your wit and panache
You are an…

On the hunt for buried treasure, wherever the twists in the trail may lead!

Growing in stature, confidence and zeal each and every day!
You are…
Our precious and wonderful
And MOST importantly,
You are…
Made in the Lord’s image
Created with love and purpose

~Psalm 139: 13-14
“And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
~Philippians 1:6
This schoolyear ~ 2020-2021 ~ was Wackadoodle!
(With extra dollops of complicated and stressful for good measure.)
But we did it!
We crushed it like the (slightly unhinged) Homeschool Champs that we are.
1st Grade?!
BAM!
2nd Grade?!
BOOM!
4th Grade?!?
KA-BLOOOOEY!
Dayspring Academy is hereby closed for SUMMER BREAK.
We high-fived, cheered, and then crossed our school finish-line with a fieldtrip to the Zoo with our best buddies, the Rockes.
Our adventurous crew fit in just grand with all of the wild and wiggly animals!
Hooray!
And HELLO Summer!!!
