3rd Grade Rocket Launch

 Brooklyn's 3rd Grade class had a rocket launch last week.

I took the two little bambinos to watch.

But I should have left them behind.

Because they were kind of naughty.

They didn't have the patience to wait for Brooklyn's launch.

(Or any launch for that matter)

They were running around and messing with the water fountains.

Stinkers.

But that's besides the point.

Brooklyn built and decorated her rocket.

Pumped it full of air.

 Stood back, pulled the stopper....and....

Blast Off!

It was fun watching all the kids (and parents) get so excited.

I love going to these special activities.

I'm continually impressed by the number of parents who show up to be supportive.

I am not impressed though, by the 15 minutes of Jack pouting because he wanted to be a 

Rocket-Launching-3rd-Grader.

Life really isn't fair, you know.
