"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. " Gordon B. Hinckley, BYU, 2006

Back to School

This is crazy!!!
Yesterday the kids went back to school. It seems so hard to believe that the school year has started already.



Cole is now in 8th grade, Keri is in 5th, and Carson is in 4th. Wow!!!


No more sleeping in and staying up late. It's back to the rigorous routine of homework and school. I know they look happy in this last picture but they actually are not excited to start school again. This picture was taken after lots of encouragement and persuading and the biggest breakfast I've made so far this year.
When I went to wake Keri up yesterday morning she was grumbling about how she didn't want to go to school. I told her that this was the best day of the year and that she should be excited to start the new year. She told me that this was the worst day of the year and that the best day of the year was the last day of school because then you knew it was over. I laughed and told her she was probably right. But what are you going to do?
The house is definitely a little bit more quiet without them home. I do get a lot more done. But I miss them terribly...

My ♥ to yours, Shilea
