Kindergarten!

Well, I have fully embraced Kindergarten life! It's been a crazy hectic start, but I actually love it almost as much as AJ does. I am room representative, of course. I tend to volunteer too much! I just want to be known! You know... since Jack will be there next year! ha... Jack is doing very well in preschool. So well, that we will probably not hold him out another year. His July 20th birthday is tricky, but I think he will be ready!

I'm also the PTA chair for the yearbook. Um... have they met me? My kid will be on every page! Oh well, that's what they get. It'll be crazy, but fun.

On these notes, I am soooooooo beyond blessed! I have everything I ever wanted and needed (except a bigger laundry room - 3 boys are dirty!) and a hard working husband which allows me to stay home and do all this extra stuff for/with my boys. Life is good! God is awesome!

Growing Boys

Well... it's happened... AJ has learned how to ride his bike with NO training wheels! I was so proud and happy and clapped for him... Then that nite in the shower, I cried. He is growing up WAY too fast. I know all of us moms feel this way, but it still sucks! I want him to grow and mature and prosper, but I also want him to need me and still be my baby. I guess Jack and Ben are quickly next. I can do this! I can!

Fathers DO NOT get it though. Lindsey sees them and says 'that's my boy'. When I say something about them growing too fast, he says something like 'it's supposed to be that way'. So, we moms must stick together and stop this growing! ha! I wish...

This comes to mind... But the child's mother said, "As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you." 2Kings4:30

I will let them grow, but I will never leave them.

It's FALL!!! Yesterday was Labor Day and a cool 87! We played on the backyard fort all morning! We haven't played on it at all this summer cause it's been too hot and it burns our hineys on the slide! I love Fall...

Well, I have a school goer! AJ started school on Monday and he loves it! I knew he was ready. The first day wasn't as bad for me as I expected. I thought I'd cry, but no tears. However, on the second day, I got misty eyed... My big boy didn't want me to walk him in (which is ok since I had Jack and Ben in the car) but he wanted to be dropped of at the Kindergarten hall. With lunch box and backpack in tow, but looked back and I yelled, 'I love you!' He said it back! How long will that last? I figure by 4th grade I won't even get the glance back... They grow up soooo fast! My mom used to tell me I'd blink and be 30. I never believed her. But here we are, in our 30s with 3 kids that are growing at the speed of light! So is our grocery bill!

More exciting events to come! (I need to be a better blogger... I'll make that my new year's resolution - in September!)

Kindergarten...here we come!

In 5 weeks, I will be sitting here waiting for 3pm to get here to go pick up AJ from his first day at big boy school! 5 weeks!!! This summer is flying by! I'm kinda glad too cause it's soooooo hot! I'm so ready for a cold front and fall and football! Oh and school! AJ will LOVE kindergarten! I will cry and rejoice at the same time!

5 weeks to get my house organized and schedules organized and so on! yay!!

Another picture I just love! We all worked goats at my parent's house and Jack decided he wanted one!

Ok I just had to put this one on here to make me laugh!
