Today is Back to School! My oldest is now in Grade 5 and the twins just started Grade 1.
Myself? I have my days free, a first in 10 years. Yes, there were a few teary moments and it was hectic to get 3 kids settled into 3 different classes in only a matter of minutes.
Yet, they are there and I am here. The house is quiet. It’s just me and my coffee, and the sounds of the keys as I type.
I miss you summer break, you were fantastic. But, this feels mighty fine too. Ahhh.

09/02/2014 at 10:48 amWhat a fun day for the girls, but a sorta sad one for you. But I remember those days, and I did enjoy those quit days, “for a while”. Thanks for sharing on Oh My Heartsie Girl this week!!
Enjoy your day!

09/02/2014 at 3:19 pmThey look so stylish in their matching jackets. Your oldest is looking more, and more like you.
Do they not have all day Kindergarten there?
Mine have been in school for 4 weeks now. It was nice having Labor Day there to break up the days.
Tammi says
09/03/2014 at 6:58 amNo, we have half-day Kindergarten here. Some schools have all day but twice per week. So, it’s a first to have them all gone, all day. Eeeek! And she does doesn’t she?! Hoping thats a good thing! lol
Rhonda Albom says
09/02/2014 at 3:24 pmI guess I have been following you a while now, it doesn’t seem possible they could be old enough for 1st grade. Beautiful shot.
Tammi says
09/03/2014 at 6:59 amI know, right?! You are so sweet Rhonda
Joyce says

Carole M says
09/03/2014 at 10:56 amI’ve been following your blog for some time now, I can’t believe the girls are that big already! Did you ask for the twins to be in separate classes? Or did it just work out that way?
posh says
