First Day Of School




My second year of working full-time.
John is a 7th grader.
Sarah is a 5th grader.
Both kids enjoy having mom drive them to school each day.


The Happy Trio

Sarah picked out her own outfit.
She was ready to get back to school and see all her friends.

John picked out his own outfit too.
He was all smiles. Not sure how excited actually was.
A new outfit for my first day of school.
It was a very warm day so the outfit was perfect.

A new position

Funny how life changes. Sometimes quickly and other times slowly, without even a notice.

After Easter, I started subbing full-time as a Teacher's Aide till the end of the school year. It was a big change to having to work full-time. I hadn't done that for the last 15 yrs. Okay, I know being a SAHM is a full-time job, but you get the picture.

The school year has now ended and I was offered the position for next Fall. I signed my contract last night. I am so excited about this adventure. I am able to work with all the kids in the school and not just one age group. I'll be working with the Kindergartner's a lot and then a couple days with the Jr/Sr high kids.

So this summer I need to get myself organized around the house so that I won't be as disorganized come next fall. There is cleaning and weeding out that I want to accomplish around here. My figuring is that if I have the house organized by the time school starts up again, 3 of us will not be here all day M-F, sooooo that one person that is left had better keep things in order. I know, it's pobably doubtful that all that will happen, but a girl can dream, right?!

Today is the first day of vacation and I slept in. I just needed to catch up on all that sleep I lost over the last 6 weeks from getting up early. lol I'm looking at Monday to really hit the work around the house hard. Hopefully the kids will help out too....okay, so I'm still dreaming. Just don't wake me up. I kind of like this dream. lol
