Looking smug, isn’t he?

Ivan is in with his Exploration Station camp in orange. His counselor is Mr. Jeff. He was excited to tell me that at this field trip the firetruck was in the fire house. They got to look inside the firetruck. When his tot school class went on their field trip a year and a half ago the firetruck was away on a call and Ivan’s memory is long at least where firetrucks are concerned.

This photo is from early May when we were so excited the near park’s water fountains were back in service!

Ivan is pretty impressed that he has grown enough since last fall when the fountains were turned off that he can now use the fountain without a parental boost.

It’s a milestone.

Yes.

Ezri tells Ivan a joke.

She thinks her joke is hilarious.

Ivan doesn’t quite get it.

Ezri tells it again.

Ivan gets it.

And agrees it is hilarious.

Ivan got an unexpected package in the mail today.
The return address was from the Booremba family.
inside was…
Green Jellybeans!

Thanks Boorembas!

This is my family bouncing around the living room playing along to Sleater Kinney.
Note the father/son resemblance.
They are both serious about the music.
