Special Little Visitors at Skyline High School

To my delight, Corissa arranged to bring Cailyn and Landon to see me at the Media Center at Skyline High School on Monday morning.  One of my coworkers Colleen agreed to "trade" lunch hours so we were able to have a picnic outdoors together on a table near the office.  There were a lot of distractions, between students walking by, security officers driving around on their golfcarts, a few planes flying over, and the classroom bells ringing! 

Once we finished our picnic, we walked to the Library...where Landon immediately discovered the steps,

and Cailyn wanted to see the books!  We found the "E-asy" books and read a story...then I showed Landon & Cailyn "the ramp" which was great exercise and fun to run "up and down." 

Fortunately, there were no classes in the library during their visit, so my assistant Jill even showed the children how to make the front door security alarm ring --Landon was totally mesmerized with the flashing red lights and siren sound...kept saying "again...again"!  Cailyn liked this too, so after we decided to stop, she took it upon herself to find a different book, and set off the alarm again! 

Cailyn also wanted to use crayons and paper, and made Mimi a picture; Landon was busy running on the ramp some more and reaching for the computer mice and tower buttons!  What a boy!!

It is no easy task for a busy mommy to pack up lunches and kids into the car, to make the 40-minute drive "way out east" to see Mimi...but I REALLY appreciated their visit, and many of my peers enjoyed the opportunity to see the children! Thanks again, Corissa!
