That time of Year Again

Most moms look forward to it.I have to admit,with my first child,I did too. Not because I wanted to be rid of her. But I was so eager to see Emily grow.

School.Yes,it's school time. Mary has had her meet-the-teacher-dress chosen & laid out for weeks it seems. She has checked & double checked her supply list & packed & repacked her backpack more times than I can count.

Joey on the other hand has kept saying his mantra "school is not starting...school is not starting..." for days now.

I have to side with Joe. For totally different reasons tho. Even tho I'm really excited about what they accomplish & what their future holds in store,I get a lil' meloncoly when the school year starts. It's going by way too fast. It went by way too fast.

Seasons of life

I really enjoy this season of life. I have adult children. It's my adopted sons that bring me so much joy.

Recently Forrest came to visit & he brought his sweetheart, Marisha. And she is indeed ,a sweetheart. I love having these young people come visit. Such a good example for Joey & Mary to see how happy your life can be when you live a gospel centered life.

I've really noticed how Mary had a void in her life when Emily cut everyone off. When one of my boys brings their sweethearts here bug looks up to them so much.

I'm so excited & happy for Forey!! He's going to have a wonderful life with Marisha by his side.
