Back To School!
-One more day to let the girls spend the morning lounging around the house, wearing their pajamas, cuddling up with picture books, and playing Hullabaloo until Brian wakes up.
-One more day for them to wear their bathing suits all morning long, even if we're not planning to go swimming.
-One more day to spend leisurely playing hide-and-go-seek in the backyard, to build fairy houses for hours on-end, and to swing "up to the clouds" on their swing set.
-One more day to eat lunch outside on a picnic blanket, where crumbs and spills don't matter one bit.
-One more day for Erin and Brian to nap as long as they want in the afternoon, without having to be woken up to rush to the bus-stop.
Tomorrow is Beth's first day of school. We're trying to enjoy this last slow-paced day, before we begin the daily rush, rush, rush to get four kids up, fed, dressed, and out the door by 7:50am. Beth is excited, but also a bit nervous about the changes ahead of her. Dan and I are sure that she will adjust well, and are so proud of all that she has accomplished this summer. I'll post some "first-day" pictures tomorrow!
Have a great year, Elizabeth Anne!! We love you!

The beginning of the school year is still the beginning of my year. I am so excited to hear about Beth's first grade experiences! It is a very big year of change. Have fun!
Love, Susan
She will love it, I am sure! Never mind her getting a good night's sleep - YOU need to go down around 7pm!
