Breath in. Breath out. (Is it summer already?!)

An entire school year complete.  Allowing myself to finally say this aloud, I am not surprised that an involuntary sigh of gratitude and relief immediately fills my lungs and escapes through my mouth.

This year has been a dream of five in the making and I’m in awe every time I think about it.  The amount of time and work our LU team has put into each week’s lesson would surprise anyone, but I am so proud that we have solidified such an amazing core group of lessons, songs and crafts for our students.

In saying that, I would like to thank Paul for all of his determination in terms of our songs, sound effects, and (soon-to-be!) CD.  Because of his deep passion and understanding of music, we have a program that not only teaches children foreign languages, but engages them through interactive songs.  Now when we explore the jungle and the moon, the children are even furthered invested in what they are learning and that is everything to me.

I’d also like to send a big thank you to our Craft Specialist, Mary Kay.  Your crafts bring my imagination to life.  Through your diligence and creativity, we have shaped a diverse, enchanting and well-rounded program. You help us leave a lasting effect on our students and their parents with every passing week. Thank you.

As we move closer to the summer season, I know we have a lot of work ahead of us. I am sure our days will quickly fly by, just as the school year did.  Because of this, I wanted to take a moment to remember how I feel at this exact moment.  I am completely humbled. Thank you all again and happy summer, everyone!
