And they're off! Yes, Ben and Abby are off on their first day of school. I have been dreading this day for several weeks now, but that hasn't slowed things down at all. For some reason, I'm just not ready for school to start. We really didn't do a whole lot this summer, but I have enjoyed having them at home. ( I have also really enjoyed their help around the house!) This year has been much more emotional for me than any year yet! I'm not sure if it's because Ben is in high school this year or because Luke is starting school this year...I've just been an emotional wreck!
I can hardly believe that Abby is in 7th grade this year. Her middle year in middle school.
Even harder to believe is that Ben is in HIGH SCHOOL!
Ugh...It makes my heart pound just thinking about it...
I did really well when I dropped Ben and Abby off at school. I didn't even cry! Luke on the other hand...He was very sad! He cried on the way home and then moped around the house for a while. (You know, until I let him watch PBS Kids!) I was so proud of myself for holding it together. Well...I managed to hold it together until I got on Facebook and starting reading everyone's posts about school and people's comments on my post/pictures. Then I lost it.
Happy first day of school, Ben and Abby!
I am praying that you will both have a great year, learn a lot, make new friends and make memories that you will last a lifetime. I also pray that you will remember who you are, who lives inside of you and let others know that there is something special about you!

When does Luke start?
I can't believe how time has flown. It doesn't seem like Luke should be going to school yet. Ben and Abby really looked like they were ready for school. I'd like to say that it gets easier as the years go by, BUT...
