First Day of School & Happy Birthday Paw Paw!

Happy Birthday, Dad! I love you! Here's your birthday present...enjoy!




First off, they L-O-V-E-D school. No tears, no clinging. Jon David did run back and give one last bear hug to his daddy...which, of course, melted his heart, but they did awesome.

Eleanor has "recess" right before pick-up, so when I got there she was beat red in the face...but beaming from ear-to-ear. She told me on the way home that a boy chased her all around the playground. I said, "oh, no. Were you worried?"

She said, "No, mommy, he was just doing it because he likes me".

Jon David, on the other hand, gave his teachers quite a scare. He sneaked out of his room. They found him running up and down the handicap ramps in the narthex. Not sure how I feel about that, but, gotta say, it made me feel a tiny bit better about myself!

They asked me tonight at supper if they could go back to school again. I said, well, yes...you're going back tomorrow. You would have thought I told them The Wiggles were coming to our house. They were beside themselves with excitement. Wait till they figure out they get to go Wednesday, too.

We took quite a few pictuers, but I haven't gotten them done yet. Here's just one when we got home from their first day of school.

THANK YOU! I thought about them all day. I left a message with Jonathan, but I understand he worked late. Papa D and I were both excited to hear the report. They are absolutely adorable children. I LOVE them and you. . .
