Thursday 13 first day of school

As a teacher, I use to gently remind parents that their precious little ones where in good hands and that they will have a great day. One year I had a mom try to hang around outside the window to keep watch for awhile. I even remember commenting on how hard it was for parents to cut the apron strings. When did I turn into one of those moms? Even though this is our third year for the first day of school and being a teacher I should be more at peace but......
I miss my girl!


Top 13 reasons I miss Olivia

  1. Her beautiful singing voice filling the house with music
  2. Her contagious laughter
  3. Her silly sense of humor
  4. Her fashion shows
  5. Hearing her read
  6. Watching her and her sister wrestle and play
  7. Her cuddles
  8. Her smile
  9. Her hugs (her sister said she misses this too)
  10. Hearing the Barbie dialogue
  11. Listening to her share an answer to one of her sister's questions about life
  12. Her dancing feet
  13. Her sweet words of wisdom and faith just when her mommy needs them

I love you Olivia! I hope you enjoy your first day of school!

When Richie spent the week with his granparents this summer, I noticed that I missed his little spirit and his energy. Things are different when they are not around, huh?

Hope Olivia had a wonderful day!
