May Days

After our travels to NYC, we laid low for the rest of the month of May.  I kept myself busy on a committee for planning our preschool's end of year spring festival.  We hired a locally-famous singing cowboy, Cowboy Jared.  Virginia clearly didn't like him at all (she called herself "Cowgirl Jared" for the rest of the month after this performance.)

Getting down with Cowboy Jared.

Playing with friends at the Cowboy Jared show.

Thomas and I had so much fun seeing a Broadway show in New York that we kept the streak going by attending another show in San Francisco.  Mary Poppins didn't live up to Matilda, but it was a nice evening at the theater nevertheless.

It's a jolly holiday....

Virginia has pretty much given up on naps entirely, but she did surprise me one day this month with a super-cute passing out on her bedroom floor.

Tired little Worm.

School Days

Virginia is now officially in preschool!  She's attending the Lake School in Oakland three mornings a week and loving it.  The school was founded by Susan (aka GayGay) thirty years ago, and Thomas was in its first class, so it is special that Virginia is now a "legacy" there.  

She started with a short three week summer session in July, but is now in the regular "school year" schedule.

No separation anxiety for Little V - she barely gives me a "Bye, Mom" as she is busy playing with friends and all the cool activities.  She's an independent woman!
