Our Little School Girl







Margaux turns 5 in October, so she missed the cut off for kindergarten, which is fine with me!  So we decided to send her to Pre-K at a small Catholic school in our area.  Yesterday was her first say and she did great!  Furthermore, I did great!  I only got a little bit misty when I watched her walk away from us into the school building.  She is doing M/W/F half days, so it's not too much of a shock to my system yet...that will come next fall.  I feel like she should still be a wee baby in my arms, not going off to preschool!  I think this will be a really fun year for her as she prepares for kindergarten.  I absolutely loved hearing about her day, but I need to remember to hold myself in check a little bit and let her tell me at her own pace...she is SO her mother's daughter!

Mom's 80th















My mom turned 80 on August 9th!  We had a birthday party for her on August 10th at the Bliss Township Hall.  It was a beautiful sunny day and the turn out was great!  I think it made her very happy to see so many faces that love her singing Happy Birthday to her.  It was great to be home, I also took some "country" pictures of Margaux while we were there.
