Kali's first day!!

My baby started Kindergarten this year! We chose to go with the full time class. It was the right decision!! She's in love with her teachers, her friends, the activities and her new best pal chuck chuck (aka Chestnut the class hamster) She was sooo excited! Up at the crack of dawn and all set and ready to go!!
The classic heading out the door shot...of course I had her go back in and through the house so we could get in the garage!! ;)

Posing for the first time in front of the school sign!

A shot with her new favorite Teacher Mrs. Thomas! She is fantastic! What a blessing to know that when Kali walks into the classroom she is loved and cared for!! Awesome!

No tears...she hugged me a few times a couple of kisses and blown kisses and she was off and running! I have to admit I got a touch teary on my walk back to the car...but it was raining, maybe it was rain! My baby is growing up!!

Boys first days!

I know I know...behind again!! I hate that, that is becoming the normal with this blog!! UGH!! Oh well...all I can do it pick up where I left off and keep on trucking...so here it goes!

The boys started school with all sorts of new things and changes... Truman is a sophomore and now driving himself and sometimes the boys to school. He is no longer the little Freshman...which he loves...still not toooo cool for a first day picture!
Taiji and Jake are now in the 7th grade!! Middle school! They are participating in school sports, moving from classroom to classroom and living out of their lockers.
They are excited!

And they are off!!

It's hard to believe this is my world...with this teenager and these preteens...where did the time go!!

Oh Dear Heavenly Father, Please keep your eyes on these boys and their hearts in your hands!! Amen!
