First day!

A day of mixed emotions for me... and pure excitement for Audrey, Brendan, and Kooper. We packed bags and left for school without a hitch, all went smoothly for these seasoned schoolers! Madeline was sad to lose her playmates, but is looking forward to some time with mom all to herself. She absolutely cannot wait until her preschool starts soon and counts down toward her first day each morning.

Some shots as we left the house this morning (Kooper left much earlier for seminary but we'll get a picture of him soon)...

School approaches

No pictures to post, just deep in reflective thought over the enjoyable days spent this summer together. How special to have so many days in a row all to ourselves... no due dates or schedules, just real quality time. I will miss the simple pleasures of summer, although there is certainly a buzz in the air over school starting soon.

Oh how fast they grow!!

Oh to put time on pause just a little longer!!
