Back to School 2014

Today I am inspired to ask, "WHY does 13 degrees feel SOOO cold in the fall and yet in the spring 13 is downright balmy?"  I know. It's all a matter of perspective.  But just gotta say that it is too cold to mow all the lawn at once today . . . especially when the forecast says 22 degrees tomorrow. Yep. The rest can wait:)
All that is really neither here nor there.  Except I'm inside rather than outside .. . so I"ll just keep playing catch up on this blog.
This is actually my back to school post . .  not a commentary on the weather.
Grade 8, Grade 5, and Grade 2.
 We're already starting week 4 and the routines are routine. I could do summer for 6 months, but I do see the value in routine as well.  
Kylie was very nervous to go back to school and now LOVES it.
Kade wasn't ready to go back to school and says it is boring . . .but he wouldn't want to stay home either. I think he likes it more than he lets on.
Kevin wasn't ready to go back but seems content enough with going each day.  There seems to be enough fun mixed in with the learning to make it worth it for him;)
Karter and I keep rather busy still and we are kind of enjoying hanging out together.  Karter has started talking up a storm . . . perhaps because he can now get a word in?!  It makes me smile.  
Karter loves seeing the bus come in the afternoon. He is pretty happy to welcome the kids home and we have some chaos again.

  1. It's so nice to see the kids off to school.... maybe if I comment, you will be inspired to put up a new post??!! There are many readers and checkers and we all love each and every post. So keep up the great journaling! I haven't seen you since this post either so I'd really like an update on the household happenings! Vas-y :)
