May Day!

May is one of my favorite months of the year. As a kid, it meant that the school year was nearing the end, and now that I work in a school, that remains true! It is amazing to think that there are only four full weeks left before a nice little summer break, and then a much more relaxed summer school schedule. There are a few other notable happenings this month, including Mother's Day, my brother's college graduation, and the day my husband and I have been waiting for...we're getting a puppy! But in the meantime, let's kick off the month of May with a song:



May is here, month number five,
Trees and flowers come alive.
Thirty one days from start to end,
So help me sing about May, my friend.

First comes May Day on day one,
Celebrate spring and have some fun.
Then don’t forget about Mother’s Day,
Each family honors Mom in its own way.

CHORUS

Memorial Day is a time that we
Should think about our history.
Let’s honor those who went to war,
And appreciate what they were fighting for.

CHORUS

We’ll have a break when May is through,
Summer time for me and you.
Play outside and sleep in late,
Enjoying our vacation will be so great.

CHORUS

What are you looking forward to this month? I am hoping for May flowers in place of the April showers we've been experiencing all week, but it looks like I'm not going to get my wish anytime soon. I am also hoping for a more relaxing weekend than the last one...we'll see if that happens! Happy May Day to you all.
