Monday Jakob and I spent time with the Frego's at Pirate's Cove Water Park. It was a little disappointing after Water Country in Williamsburg, but still a fun day in the sun. The pool was huge and had a small slide and a bucket that dumped out lots of water. We spent several hours swimming and laughing and eating. The perfect summer day.
Tuesday we bought groceries, you have to eat even when you're having fun. We also played outside with friends.
Today we drove to Baltimore and visited Port Discovery Children's Museum. Jakob climbed a huge playground structure that was 3 stories tall. I followed him once and even though the sign said "parents are encouraged to join in" I struggled to climb through some fairly small places and Jakob encouraged me by saying "mommy it's a bigger opening up here". I have chosen to believe it is not my width that slowed me down but my height. They had a great water room where Jakob put himself in a bubble. So cool! There were lots of great activities. After the museum closed we walked down to the harbor and met a friend from Wichita for dinner. I met her when she was 8 and 21 years later we still have so much fun when we get together. Amazing! We made it home by 9:30 and found a wonderful letter in our mailbox. Jakob's teacher for next year is the one we were hoping to get. We were so excited we jumped up and down and called George to share our GREAT news!! Then Jakob fell into bed and was asleep within minutes.
Tomorrow we meet his teacher and attend his last book club meeting. The summer went by so quickly, but we have really enjoyed this last week. Friday is open, but I'm sure we'll find something to fill it.
