School

We made it through our first few weeks of school and things are going well.



Jared is in middle school and I can not believe this. It seems like just yesterday I was taking him to his first day of kindergarten and he was afraid he would not have any friends. Now his voice is changing and he is becoming more like his father every day. He is mouthy and stubborn so we have lots of fun banging our heads together just to get homework done. He is also getting up at 6:00 am so he is a bear most days and I become a bear if I don't sleep so he and I will have to try very hard not to be bears at the same time.

He is very excited about his first dance and he really seems to be enjoying school.
Devon is in forth grade this year and although he love his teacher I think there are some kids he could do with out. He is a perfectionist and he tries very hard to make sure everything is neat and exact. So he has already had 2 melt downs because he forgot his homework at school. At this rate he will be crying more then laughing this school year. He has also started the REACH program this year. I am hoping that this will challenge him so he is getting the most out of school.

Jordan is loving school, who won't when they are in 1st grade. She has the same teacher as Devon and she is very proud of that. She loves to learn and is still amazed at all the new things out there. She is growing so fast I can not believe that she is my baby because she is not a baby anymore.

Hopefully the school year will be a great one. I know that it is going to fly by and before we know it it will be over. I am going to try and enjoy this year and spend lots of time with the kids.
