It's August

Boy time is flying by. I have 3 kids in school and 2 at home with me for part of the day. I love to have these sweet children all around me and see them grow. Lily is in 4th grade and that's making me feel old!! It's hard for me too see her as that old. She's still a good 2-3 inches shorter than Emma. She wishes that she was taller but at least her feet are finally growing. Peter is in kindergarten again and he's so glad. I talked to his teacher and told her where he was education wise so that she would challenge him more. I really don't want him to get bored. Emma is in 3rd grade and finally gets to join choir. She's been waiting so patiently. She loves to sing and I'm excited to see her improve.
Benjamin is the sweetest little big guy. He always says please and thank you. He says sorry even when it's not his fault. He loves his hugs, and Peter. Oh how he loves his older brother. He's missing him while peters at school. Those two boys get along so incredibly well. It makes this mommy super happy. Miriam is a super happy sweet baby. She's almost 2!!! Why does she have to get older?!?!?! Sigh, this is the first time that I've had a 2 year old without having an infant or ready to pop. It's so different for me. One thing is, I have energy to keep up with her and just maybe I'll get her potty trained faster. Before it was just too much to do that with a new baby. I just might have an advantage it haven't in the past. Whoo hoo! Just imagine no diapers. Ohhh but I'll miss all that is baby. Life is great and we are so happy.
