TO SCHOOL!


School started TODAY! Here's some great pictures of the kids. (Caleb's in yellow). I hope things go well. The older boys will make sure Caleb finds his class okay & doesn't head to last year's room. Otherwise, I'm praying all day for all 3 of them! Oh...I almost forgot! Caleb learned to RIDE A TWO WHEELER BIKE yesterday!! Hooray! We were at some friends playing volleyball, and all they had were regular kid bikes with no training wheels. Caleb found one his size, pushed off, and away he went! Just like he'd always been doing it! NO MORE TRAINING WHEELS! It was just last year that he learned to pedal, now he's riding a two-wheeler like any normal kid! Hopefully school goes just as well and easy as riding a bike :)

It was a great day! He's done that so often where it just clicks all of a sudden, like he's always been doing it. Keep praying as he continues first grade. Love ya!

How fun! Samuel is finally among the ranks of the big-boy-bike-riders as well, but I anticipate YEARS before Shiphrah ever shows an interest. :)

What an exciting time the beginning of school is! How are the boys enjoying it so far?

And what will you do with yourself all day now with *only* a set of vivacious twins and a home to manage? ;) (ducking! :)

The boys are really enjoying school. Caleb's teacher phoned me yesterday to say he had a great day. I'm praying it continues! So far I'm loving having the boys gone :) I've tackled several projects that I put off....like cleaning out closets & such. Today I plan to take the youngest 2 grocery shopping. They're generally much easier than the other 3. It'll be so nice to have a little time for myself for a change! Next year the "babies" will do "Just 4's" and then what will I do?!

You might even get to go be a nurse for a little while! How fun! I suppose Grandma shared our most recent news? :) hmmm... maybe now that yours will all be in school, y'all could move down here and help me with my little zoo?! ;)
