Back to School

     It is crazy to think we are already back to school.  The kids started this last week on Wednesday, August 15th. The summer has flown by.  There was so much more I intended to do and didn’t.  I guess it will be saved fore a later date. 

   I am having a hard time believing that I have a 5th grader, a 3rd grader and a preschooler.  I can remember bits and pieces of being their ages and I feel that it couldn’t have been that long ago that I was in their shoes.  I guess I am getting old. 

   Without further ado  the first day of school pictures.  

Kelsi is sporting her new glasses.  This year is the first year that she has had glasses.  That now makes four out of the five of us with some kind of corrective lens.  Courtney may not have a chance.  

   Shaylee is my big third grader.  She started at a new school this year.  She was nervous about that but she has a great teacher and is handling it beautifully.  She also got new glasses but she wore glasses all last year so she is used to them. 

   I think the both look very smart in their glasses.  I am proud of the girls they are and grateful that they like school.  Homework is another story though.

We had to get Courtney in a picture but she didn’t want to come stand with her sisters so Kelsi helped out.  Courtney starts preschool this week so there will be pictures to come of that.  Can’t hardly believe that my baby is in preschool.  She is lucky enough that she gets to have the same preschool teacher that the older two did.  Susan Norton runs a wonderful preschool out of her home.  She is an wonderful teacher.

  Kelsi’s homeroom teacher this year is Mrs. Christenson.   She is a new teacher for the 5th grade and so far Kelsi seems to like her. 

   Shaylee got Mrs. Demuth.  She seems like a really nice teacher.  Small world fact about her is that she and my dad went to high school together.  Apparently they even went to a formal high school dance together.  She says she has a picture somewhere of them.  That would be fun to see.

   Courtney has had fun being home with me.  She has been lucky to have her little friend Sophia to play with her every day since the girls started school.  At this rate she is going to expect a friend to play with every day.  She loves having someone to play with.  I think she is going to love preschool.
