A Morales Minute

Breakfast for Jaime. Banana pancakes, bacon, hash browns and OJ.  Aidan and Tyler wanted to make cookies with Jaime for Father's Day. I thought it was such a sweet gesture. Olivia was a bit bummed she couldn't be here for it as she feels it's been a thing for her and Jaime to make chocolate chip cookies together. I told her she's here in spirit. The kids all called Jaime to wish him a Happy Father's Day. We need to enjoy these last few years of having kids home for these smaller holidays. Before I know it we won't have any of them here for them.  P.S. Can't believe I didn't get a picture of Jaime with the boys! 

This year I don't think Aidan has changed much physically. lol He's really enjoyed his sophomore year though. He loved his history class and stem classes.  Aidan will be starting Running Start at CBC this year. He's going to be done with high school before I know it! If there's anyone I can think of who will do as you ask, it's Aidan. He's always so willing and responsible to get something done if I need him to. He's seriously the most chill kid I have. Always respectful and loving.  Tyler has grown and matured and learned a lot this year. He LOVED football of course but turns out he really enjoys DECA. He's the life of the party. One of the DECA advisors told Jaime how Tyler just lights are the room, or van, for any DECA meeting or trip. He loved going to a Mariners and Trailblazers game. Competing at DECA state in Seattle was a big learning experience for him. He's eager to improve and go again next year.  Last day of his Freshman year. Tyler is go...

It's that time of year where we're gone several evenings or weekend afternoons attending different high school graduation parties/open houses. Since Jaime is the principal he gets quite a few and then we always get invites to attend those of kids in our ward or stake.  Jaime completed another school year and conducted his fourth high school graduation. Their timing is incredible. Having the largest school in the state and Jaime keeps graduation to 60 minutes. There are schools so much smaller where graduation is a couple hours! Even the graduates don't want to be there that long. It was nice for me to be able to watch it from home this time.  Once graduation is done, Jaime always feels the stress of that event lift off his shoulders. I only wish he could have the evening to rest and recover but unfortunately, he's at the senior class party now. He definitely needs the next day to recover.
