I did send the kiddos back to school in August - I just forget to document it here.
Well kiddos, you have started another year in your EDUCATION! That's right - the formative years of 7th, 5th, 3rd & 3 Year Pre-school have begun & we are trying to form you into SUPER SMART adults. Actually, truth be told, we just want you to have some sense so you make "wise choices." (My favorite mommy saying) And at school they teach you reading & math so that one day you can follow directions on travels & back home to Mommy & you can balance YOUR bank account (aka- NOT ours).
The school year has started a little crazy & that is just going to be the norm around here for the next 16 years (that is when Lee goes to college). I am thinking now that I may send Lee to college with Baylor & let me help the 2 middle boys get through high school & then I can get Lee through middle school & high school . . . .Anyway, I digress, we are having to work a little extra in 3rd grade this year, but everyone has something they struggle with & this is going to be our year to get through those struggles. 5th grade is "just fine, no worries" & 7th grade is "a little harder, but no worries, Mom." I was told pre-school would be better if they had a zipline on the playground, but there is only so much this Mommy can do.
Of course we have soccer, majorettes & flag football. We have added in youth group, 3 Bible studies & Wednesday night church. We are now in a carpool that covers 3, of the 4, schools. We play in the neighborhood & keep the ATM machine busy with middle school football game concessions & tickets. We cart "twirly girls" around & roll down the windows when the soccer boys are in the car (SMELLY!).
I love these 4 & miss them when they go back to school each Fall . . .Mommy
**Now I just have to find my back to school pictures
