Here are our (super late I know) 1st day of school pictures. This year is special because Mikayla is now a 7th grader and Owen is now in 1st grade and at school all day (insert mom whooping and cheering here)
I was not excited, as most of you who have talked to me about it know, about Mikayla starting 7th grade. As soon as she finished 6th grade I developed, what I lovingly refer to as, "pukitis". When the subject of Mikayla and 7th grade came up I would either start to either get "fake" sick to my stomach, plug my ears and say "la la la la la la la". After going to back to school night however and watching Mikayla get really nervous and come down with a case of pukitis herself I was cured and got really excited for her. She has fit into middle school really well and seems to be excelling so far. She even ran her mile run in just over 12 min. a feat all by itself!
Morgan is now in the 4th grade. (they grow up so stinking fast. I thought it was a myth. Turns out. . . it isn't) She is loving it. She is a wonderful reader and is fantastic at math. She is also, from what I can tell, one of those girls that thinks their group of friends is awesome. Do you know the type I am talking about? I am a little nervous if that continues! She is however a great friend and seems to make friends extremely easily. I am so excited to watch her excel. 
Mr. Owen is our big 1st grader. His favorite subjects in school are. . . . recess and lunch. He is such a boy. He does however do really well at math and will read to me at night if I force him to and promise to read at least 2 books to him after he is done. After having 2 girls who love school and do really well without much effort on my part I am a little nervous to see what a parent teacher conference with Owens teacher will be like. Example, Owen has already lost recess privileges after doing something he was asked not to. I do however think that he is going to be a wonderful student and will enjoy it. (at least until he realizes that he too is too cool for school!) 
Sam you would think would be lonely but he is however the exact opposite. He looks forward to the kids going to school because he finally gets to pick what he watches on tv and he gets to play the wii all by himself. Oh and he gets to go and play with mommy and his cousins all the time which anyone would love! 
I miss them a lot, I miss my sleep a lot, but mostly I will miss all the little things and times that fly by that you don't pay attention to until they are gone.
