Not-Back-to-School Party

Today, while all of the other kids are heading back to school with new supplies and backpacks, we spent the day at the pool with our homeschool friends celebrating not going back to school.
The day included a visit from the local truancy officer to find out who/what we were doing and the fire department.  One of our sweet five year old friends got stuck in the cinder-block walled bathroom when the deadbolt lock broke.  Sweet girl sang worship songs to her mama through the door until the fire department arrived to cut the door open.  I asked her if I could buy her a sonic slush, but she requested a Starbucks instead.
The girls had a blast while the boys spent the day with a friend from the gym.  They are recovering from strep, so they are not up to be around others quite yet.
