Happy Birthday!

Loving and missing you from a Distance

First Day of 9th grade!

Meg started school today. She is a big 9th grader this year. She was excited to see her friends of course. She wanted to get there nice and early to chit chat. It's a little sad to have them both back in school. It will be nice to be back on a schedule though. Not sure what kind of schedule we can hold with them already playing softball. We just hope we have many more days of hot weather.

First Day of 6th grade........

Mckenzie's first day of school was today. She loved it. The first thing she said when she came home today was "I love my teacher" what a relief. She wasn't sure yesterday if she wanted to take the bus or have us take her. She was afraid if we took her she would cry (like the past years) last night she wanted to take the bus. I will admit I was a little sad. I wanted to take her, but I was willing to forgo taking her so she wouldn't be sad. But she decided she could be brave and let us take her. We got her to her class and she was just fine. The 2 little girls in the neighborhood she "always" plays with are in her class too. The first day of school is much better with friends. So she is the big girl on campus now we told her. She said "I am too short to be in 6th grade"
