First Day of School












You are all living this along with me, the start of another school year. This year was way different for me than last year, something about Kindergarten is so emotional. No tears were shed for first grade. I guess I did get a little emotional during the all school worship at Carter's school. Worship music always makes me emotional, I am so happy and feel so lucky that our children go to a school where they start the school year off with praising God and praying for his hand in all they do!! In Wisconsin most schools started last week, Carter did not start until this week so we are only on day 3. He is enjoying first grade and seems happy to be back in school. He did say to me last night, "It isn't fair that I do not get to see you all day." Melted my heart, I know he will not feel that way forever so I will soak it in while I can.
Griffin started preschool today and when I asked him for a kiss he said, "You can get one from somebody else." They are very different children that is for sure. School will be good fro Griffin, it is only 2 mornings a week so he and I will still have a lot of time to spend together. He is an awesome kid when you spend one-on-one time with him. He is going to be 4 years old next month, now that brings a tear to my eye.

Exiting news about our third child, we have been approved by the Department of Homeland Security to bring a child to the US. Now we just continue to wait. We are hoping to get our daughter's referral (her information and picture) sometime between November and February.

Hope you are all enjoying the summer weather we are finally getting!!
