Today marks eleven days until the last day of school. And that means . . .
The countdown candy has begun.
We started the countdown candy yesterday, because we always start when there are 12 days left, and we have four-day weeks. This year's candy is peanut M&Ms.
I have also changed the boys' inspirational getting-up music from their usual "Reveille" to "The Final Countdown."
We're gonna make it, one M&M and iconic '80s song at a time.

My kids would not budge for peanut m&m's. I think I'd have to bribe with donuts or cinnamon rolls.
I don't even know when my son's elementary school gets out- we had snow days but I never read an announcement for using emergency days. The public school goes to 5/27, though my senior stops 5/15. Keeping him focused on passing and graduating takes up most of my brain right now. Unfortunately, he's past the bribing stage.
The final countdown- appropriate! And now I have that song as an ear worm. 🙄
Well, the candy is not the reason they get out the door. That's due entirely to the force of my nagging. :-) The candy is just a symbol.
One more week for your senior after this! You can both do it! Sorry about the earworm.
