Getting into the routine..

of school being back in session. So far so good. I'm not sure if I have any real expectations for the kids this year, other than doing there best, but 2 of them have brought home a couple of papers with less than stellar marks. I however, am no alarmed. I know that it's hard the first couple of weeks to get back into the groove of things, and I am sure that I will see improvement.

Sunday was the start of children's ministries and I have all 3 kids involved. My youngest, however, does not want to be a part of anything. Can I just tell you that I'm not giving him a choice.

Sunday was also Logan's birthday (he is the youngest). We had a few friends and family over and it was nice. I like having the house filled with kids and laughter and noise, as long as it's in short spurts. Honestly I love the quiteness of my house in the middle of the afternoon.

So this is the last year that I have a child in the single digits. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but here it is...this time next year...they will all be 10 and older. I'm so thankful for the time I have with them, but my youngest is official half grown (sort of...well according to the US government).

So here's a few pictures of the celebration, and I hope that as he continues to grow and mature that he will remember these good times too.

~Peace & Blessings~
