The last month has flown by!


I can't believe that today marks one month that the kids have been in school! Where has the last month gone? I never look forward to sending the kids back, I like having them at home. This year I was just really excited for them to have a great year. And so far they have. And so have I. Amazing how a couple less kids at home makes for a calmer mommy. ;-) Katie is loving school like always and doing great. I was a little worried about Nathan. With his late birthday he had 2 years of Kindergarten and didn't enjoy last year much. However he is doing great this year! And loving it! He is actually enjoying doing his school work and getting good grades. I am so proud of him. If the rest of the year goes by as fast as the first of it has, which I'm sure it will, YIKES!!

I SO want to cry!

My mother in law and I were doing peaches today. Brinley wasn't really allowing me to help much, so she and I went to get some dinner. I had a "feeling" I should take Emi with me, but she said she wanted to stay. When I got back I found this:



I've waited nearly 4 years for her hair to get to any length at all. She was completely bald until about 2. I had just decided to cut it to her shoulders now that a spot Katie and Nathan "trimmed" had grown out. All the wispy ends would be gone. It was going to be so cute! Now what!?! An ear length bob just won't be so cute. I just hope it doesn't take another four years to grow out again!
