God, life, family, kids, etc…

Today was our first day of school. I spent many hours last week going through all the curriculums I brought with me (thanks so much for all your helping getting it, Ruthie) - trying to get it all organized and figure out where to start in the books.

Last night I got our guest house living room all set up for today, and then wouldn’t let the kids go in til we actually started (of course they peeked through the windows before.)

Today seemed to go well. The girls were really excited to start, and said they had a lot of fun. I enjoyed it, although was pretty tired by the end.

I think balancing Kindergarten with Second Grade (and a 3 year old tagging along!) will be interesting at times. But Lauren is really into “time alone with Mom” right now, so I’ll probably capitalize on that to fit in some extra work with her.
