First Day of School

Okay the first day of school was over a month ago. But, I'm finally done posting about vacation and now on to school!

Mr. P is in 5th grade, Moses in 3rd, Sis in 1st and George in K!! It's going to be a very fun year with all four kids at THE SAME SCHOOL!!

Tuba is back at the high school and has transitioned into job skill training. He is loving his first job. He delivers inter office mail at the school district headquarters. 

George is off to a wonderful start. He is loving K. He goes half day so then spends his afternoons with me. It's nice to have some one-on-one time together. It's also a little boring for him some days. He should probably be doing the all day class but it is expensive ($3,000) so we opted for half day for free. Free school Becky...that's the mantra Cam kept repeating. After seven years of paying for preschool it is exciting.

Sis is having a fantastic year!! She has an amazing teacher that is a perfect fit for her. Last year was a hard year for Sis. The K teacher last year was not a good fit and Sis struggled all year. This year is like a complete turn around. She is loving school and is blossoming. She won an academic achievement award last week!!

Moses is enjoying school too. It's hard to get details out of him. So far I know that he goes to lunch and recess. Seriously! So glad conferences are right around the corner.

Mr. P is thrilled to be in 5th grade....the big kids. He loves his teacher. He has signed up to be a mediator....helping younger kids solve disagreements on the playground. 

I'm excited for my time volunteering in the kids' classrooms. I truly love my time at the school.

Now that I'm practically caught up with blogging I'm at a loss for what to post next. I do want to share my new deck, my new art station, and fall inspiration. What do you want to read about. I do miss my lists of favorite things and Kairos moments. Is there an old post that you enjoyed? You pick it....I'll blog it. Leave it in the comments. 

Humor

I love to laugh. And...if you ask my hubby he'll say I laugh like a pirate....and so do my mom and sisters. Yep, that's us...a bunch a cackling (that's Cam's other term for my laugh) pirates! Hey, I do love to laugh. The crazier life gets the more I seek out a good laugh. The few TV shows I watch are ones that make me laugh. I love comedy movies too. I don't have time for the sad or scary. There is enough of that in real life.
I follow a bunch of different blogs. Some are friends through the adoption world, some are friends from church, some family, and some through the grapevine. One of my favorite blogs is Heart Condition. The blog's writer is Erika...I went to high school with her hubby. They too have "almost twins"...two boys only 4.5 mos. apart. Let me say that Erika's blog is THE funniest thing ever. Some days her posts are serious...like the ones detailing her boys' adoptions. Get the kleenex while reading that series. Erika is an excellent writer and has the BEST sense of humor. Her husband tells her she should write a book...and he is right! Check out her blog and you can have a daily dose of humor...and use your pirate laugh like I do.
