It happens this time every year, I start to get homesick for Maine! With the exception of our visit this past Christmas, all the trips I have taken up there have been some time between the end of May and the 4th of July. Our trip this summer will not fall within that time frame. We aren't going to go up until mid-July. It'll be so hard to wait that long, but it's just as well that the trip will be later. I have lots to do before then.
I am still getting together a package of Samuel's school work from this past year to send to a consultant. As I mentioned before, I am hoping to have a consultant look at his wo
rk to provide an outside opinion of his academic progress. I submit standardized test scores as proof of academic achievement for my oldest son, but will not be able to do this for Samuel since he would not be able to take the standardized test that I usually use, the CAT-5.

I can't imagine getting nostalgic for Maine during any season but summer. Brr. It is pretty though. I've only ever seen it in pictures.
I wondered how well I would like it when I went up there last December. I had only ever experienced Maine in warm weather prior to that. It was very different in the winter, but I still liked it. I will admit however, I was only there for a week. What would I think if I lived up there? I'm used to spring arriving in March and I know it doesn't arrive until much later up there!
I have never been to Maine. The pictures are breathtaking. I hope the consultant gives you useful information that will assist you with future educational planning for your son.
Hello :) I have never been to Maine either but have always wanted to go. The pictures are so pretty and I hear that the lobsters are yummy! I would love to be in Maine, it's been 114 degrees here all week :(
Oh my gosh, 114 degrees! And I'm complaining about upper 80's (with tons of humidity)! We left for Maine a year ago today. I remember because it was the longest day of the year.. and we had such trouble seeing the sunset through the trees en route.
