Another First Day of School
This use to be my crew…
L to R: The Cowboy, K5; Speedracer, K4; the Ladybug, 3rd grade.
Now I’ve got this…
1st Day Sept 2015 L to R: Ladybug (6th), Speedracer (2nd), and Cowboy (3rd).
Forgive me if I keel over and die right now.
There is simply no preparation in life for facing this. {smile} And it’s probably only going to get worse.
My chubby-cheeked babes are all gone.
We’re back to packing lunches and fussing about homework and getting everyone up before it’s light outside. (I have no sympathy there, since Coal gets me up at 5:30 every morning anyway!)
Who knows what the school year has for us this time. The Ladybug is in an upper elementary this year and the boys are back in the same school as last year. The Ladybug got on the bus fine this morning, but the boys’ bus never showed up. Always an adventure, but we’re hoping for a smoother start than last year. We understand our expectations and boundaries better this time! We have a better idea what areas will be the most challenging for us. Where we might need to provide most guidance and supervision.
Pray for us. That’s always a help too!

They grow so fast! I keep telling my youngest she’ll be my favorite if she’ll just stay little forever, but she keeps growing anyway. I hope your kids have a great school year!
