Wow this summer has just flew by. Our kids have been back in school for about 2 weeks now so we are getting into a new routine, slowly. I have so many things swimming around in my head right now, I just need to get it organized and put it into sensible blog reading style.
My oldest started her senior year this year, it's gone by so fast. We are scheduling college visits and filling out applications, plus regular senior things that she needs (and it's getting pretty expensive), I just want this to be a year she will remember forever. She definitely has mixed feeling about being a senior, but I told her that it was all natural and she would be fine.
The oldest boy started he's sophomore year in high school and he's doing better than last year, which we are grateful for because he had a rough time last year.
The youngest girl started 6th grade this year, I just can't believe she is in 6th grade it seems just like yesterday when we were dropping her off at Kindergarten for the first time.
The youngest boy is in 3rd grade this year and let me tell ya he is the one that is going to give a run for our sanity before he is done with school, he's definitely the craziest out of all the kids. The good thing is that his teacher this year is his Aunt (my husbands sister) so she will help us keep him in check.
The weather has been nice for a few days now and it is only going to get better by the end of the week, I am so ready for fall this year. I have already started thinking about birthday's coming up within the next month (all 4 kids have birthdays between Aug. 27 - Sept. 27) then it will be time to start thinking about Christmas actually I have already started thinking about Christmas and I am determined to not wait until the last minute this year as in years past. We have a few very busy months ahead of us then it will be 2011, it just seems the older you get the faster time passes by. There you have it your a little more caught up now, I know the suspense between the posts was killing you, hahaha! Have a great day and God Bless ya!!!!

Hello there! Wow...your children have been in school for 2 wks already? we still have 2 1/2 wks of summer vacation....but then again we probably go longer in the school year than you do in the midwest (we don't get out until last week of june).
I saw your comment about leading a small group.....GO FOR IT! I have 6 committed women starting on 9/23 and have 2 other women on a "waiting list' (our church suggests that we have no more than 8 but my home can really only deal with 6 plus my self comfortably...we have a small sidehall colonial....we'll be meeting in our family room which is about the same size as our living room so....pray for me!!). I am excited about it and just praying we can all encourage each other on the faith walk as moms to teens! Good luck with the college visits...my senior can't wait for the school year to begin....I can't wait for her to get going on writing all those essays! lol....enjoy your day!
