Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened- Dr.Seuss

I saw this quote on facebook and I loved it. I tend to look on the I don't like change side of life. Like my best buddy Isaac is in 1st grade and I will miss him just like I did with all the rest that have gone to 1st grade. Its always a bitter sweet moment to move on and forward with life. I love these kids with all my heart and want for them all to be happy in life. I wish I could take away all the pains, trials and sorrows that they experience but I can't, they wouldn't be who they are without the trials. So, we have ventured off into teenage land. The first month was amazing and then it happened we got a teenager. I hope and pray that we (mom, dad and Gabe) can come out alive when it ends...does it end? I love this kid I hope we can do a good job in raising you. I hope the lord will guide us to assist you in your life journey. 

So, today, the first day of school (pronounced as sh-ool for fun!). What did we do? 

*wake up at 7:00 

*scripture study

*breakfast

*get ready in fancy new clothes

*ride bikes to school

What did mom get done?

*exercise

*mow the lawn

*laundry

*edited a session

*went to the store with Beckam 

*delivered 2 sessions

*played with Beckam

...its crazy what I can get done in a day without children.

Oh yeah, Beckam got into a few things. Greg's journal tape from his mission and made it into a fun mess. He found my lip gloss and was putting it all over his face. Colored, placed crackers everywhere, walked out the front door waving BY to me. Not sure what his plan was.

Kids are home and telling me all about their day at school. 

*take Bryn to practice 

*take other kids to play

*pick up and now dinner time

*off to bed for a good night sleep
