So Far So Good


Our biggest problem so far has been getting the kids to bed on time. And that's nothing serious, just a new routine.
 
Yesterday, when she got off the bus, Shelly ran ahead of me, leaping like a gazelle and excitedly telling me on and on about her day. Now that she and Archer and in the same school its like they're in the same club. "Did you see when... Do you know... Remember how..." Its great to hear them sharing those experiences together, and filling me in a little when they remember that I have no idea what they're talking about.

Archer starting 3rd grade, Shelly starting kindergarten, and E along for the ride

I sometimes forget how young they are. Shelly talks like she's ten years older than she really is. Archer's always ready to strike out on his own, forging a new trail. And here they go again, forging into a new school year, no looking back.
