I thought it was cool to catch a rainbow last night!  




We did explore so many treasures this week with your kiddos, and I just wanted to thank you so much, once again, for the opportunity to learn and grow together this week!

Thanks to Mrs. Val Byrd Fort for sharing her time and talents with Yoga Camp!  To know a good book to read everyday this summer, follow her on Twitter: @MrsByrdFort  Friend her New Providence Elementary Library Facebook Page to know other great ideas.  Val and I met years ago when she was learning to be a library lady!  I am so thankful for her friendship, and I am a better person for knowing her.  

Happy 4th!  Enjoy freedom today and EVERYDAY!  Make choices that make this world a better place,
D'Etta
