Back to School

Well, the kids are back in school. Can you believe summer is gone? and where did the wonderful days of sleeping in, and staying up late go? Most kids hate going back to school, but ours love it, they love learning, routine, friends and their school. Sometimes I am surprised at how excited they get to go back, but it is usually like that every year. They have wonderful teachers this year, which really does make or break the year in so many ways. These teachers are the ones that are rare, the ones you remember when you are 50, and they make lasting impressions on your life. The twins have been waiting for this year for a long time, just to be with their teacher. He is a wonderful man. Alex has the same teacher that the twins had in third and he is excited too. I am picking up my teaching load at the gym. So now that they will be back in class,,,,I am too. I am a little sore this week. Understatement! Although it is great to be back in a routine, the early mornings have taken their toll on them(as you will see in the before and after school photos) Here's to fall! (somehow it never feels like fall when it's 100 degrees)
