It wasn’t just the Last Day for Jeffrey today.
Everyone else was happy to be finished up with school, as well.
They wouldn’t come inside until after this happened. “Mom, you have to take our picture on the last day of school!” Oh, do I?


Our last day tradition these last few years is to load up with sugar at Menchie’s frozen yogurt.
William’s bowl was just perfect. The platonic ideal of a child’s ice cream sundae:

Later we went to the grocery store to pick out “summer cereal.” This means they can choose any cereal they want. Eleanor chose Lucky Charms, Jeff got Reese’s Puffs. Katie got Cookie Crisp, and William, after a great deal of deliberating, picked out “Cap’n Crunch Donut Crunch,” wherein the regular Cap’n Crunch gumscrapers are molded into little O’s and garnished with sprinkles. His verdict is that it “doesn’t taste like donuts at all.” Welcome to the world of gimmicky cereals, kid.
