Blake's first day of Kindergarten

So yesterday was my youngest child's first day of Kindergarten. Where has the time gone? While I'm happy and excited for him to start this new journey, I am also a bit sad when I think about how fast all my children have grown up. But I know that we all have to grow up and so I will not dwell on that. It just makes all the times we have together while they are still children even more precious.

I do have to share this though... Tuesday night Blake was saying his night night prayer and part of it was this "...Jesus, please let me have the super greatest day of my life for Kindergraten tomorrow, and please let the time pass by really fast so mommy won't be bored or sad without me here with her..." Isn't that just the sweetest! At the end of the day he said he had a great day. When I asked him his favorite parts his reply was "I got to paint and I saw my brother at snack time." I'm sure catching a glimpse of Zach during snack made it easier on him and reassured him Zach and Becca were in fact at the school too.

School starts this week!

Wow, this summer has seemed to fly by. Maybe its because we have been so busy with things we haven't had a lot of down time. Tuesday My two oldest start back to schhol. On Wednesday my youngest will have his first day of Kindergarten. Its going to be so strange having all the kids in school full time. I will probably go crazy the first week trying to adjust. I think the summer break for kids just get shorter and shorter. But thankfully they do get plenty of break throughout the school year so maybe they won't get too burned out. I guess the hardest part is always getting back into the schhol year routine. going to bed at the "school year bedtime" and getting up early. Its just hard once you get into the lazy summer mode. But thankfully my kids have always seemd to adjust and get back into their routine rather quickly. Let's just hope it happens like that this year since I will have three kids getting up and getting ready for school.

Changed my template

Changed my template from the dark background to the light one because I kept forgetting to make my font color something that would show up on the dark background...LOL So now its the light background and I can stick with plain le black type. Im sure as I pop on throughout the day I will play around a bit more and figure some other things out...so just ignore all the test posts that are about to come.
