I HEART ...

... SKIPPING SCHOOL

My Lulu has not been wanting to go to school this week.

On Monday we FORGOT???
I am not sure what that happened there.
I was preparing materials for my PTA presentation and had to send a few emails and I kept thinking  "hm ... I am forgetting something???!!"
At 1:45 PM I realized that what I had forgotten was to drop off Lulu at school ... duuuuhhhhh!

Yesterday I told her " ... time to go to school ..." and she just gave me a HUGE hug, kissed me, told me she LOVES me and said "Can I PLEEEAAAASE stay with you today?!"
I totally fell for it :)

So instead of circle time (which she hates :) we skipped together to my Dr's appointment, picked up L from school and had a LONG play-date at the park with ls friends from school.

Pat said:
 "What? Are we just not going to school anymore?"
... and I could hear he was not too pleased ;(

My answer was simple:
"Look. This is my LAST year with Lulu at home. My last year where she will not get a Tardy Card or is required to be present.
My last year of just doing what we want and hanging out.
My last year (really just months) before she too will go to Elementary school and we'll have home work, reading tests, spelling tests .... and no more time for SKIPPING SCHOOL.
So we'll skip school as much as we want to NOW ... because now is the time!"

.... so we SKIPPED school and had SO MUCH FUN doing it!!!!

I LOVE MY Ls!!!
