The First Day of School

Today was "Meet the Teacher" day at the kids school. They went to school for an hour today. It was a way to see their classroom and meet their teacher and the kids in their class. The kids were so excited this morning. Tomorrow will be their first full day. They are very excited to be eating lunch at school tomorrow. I will be working at home while they are at school. I am in training right now. I will try to update tomorrow on the kids first "real" day at school. It is a bitter sweet day. I can't believe my babies are off to school. I have been in a retrospective mood today,thinking about where the years have gone, but I am glad they are so excited and happy to be going to school. I will continue to savor each day with my kids, and celebrate each season of their life with them. I am reminded that God only gives David and I a very short time to have them at home with us. I pray I will be the kind of mother God wants me to be to them. I pray Jesus will go with them and hold their hand when I can't.
