Back to School

Elliot 6th grade // Avery 4th grade // Zara 1st grade

I have to admit that this was probably my hardest summer with the kids.  I thinking having 4 kids and a small baby had something to do with it. ;)  After swim team ended the last couple weeks seemed to drag.  But here we are!  3 days into the school year and next week will be their first full week.  As much as I miss them during the day it is so nice having more flexibility and more quiet. :)

We had meet the teacher on Monday.  This is a big year for Zara because she is going from half day to whole day.  I can tell she was nervous but she has come home happy and excited to tell me about her day so she's transitioning well so far.  Mrs. Reger is going to be an amazing teacher for Zara.

Zara's teacher Ms. Reger is new to Franklin East, although she has taught before, and this is Mrs. Bentley's second year at Franklin.  She's Avery's teacher.  Elliot had Mrs. Anderson, although I forgot to take a picture.  It's cool because Avery had Mrs. Anderson in 2nd grade.  This is her second year teaching 6th grade at Franklin.

 Rupert was sad Daddy had to go to work, and that his preschool doesn't start until next week.

Classic bus picture. :)  I thought it'd be fun to look at some past back to school photos.

With school back into motion I've started a new habit of writing 5 things on my to do list each day. Anything extra I get done is bonus.  Some things I'm working on are scripture study in the morning, I started meditating again, and doing yoga.  Yay for catching up on life!
