Joyful Mother of Children
August 7, 2007
First Day of School
I'm almost ashamed to see how long it's taken me to post!  Not only am I a "joyful mama" but I'm a "busy mama" as well.  We have officially started our first day of school, as of Aug. 6th.  I wasn't planning on starting until the 13th, but around 5:30pm on Aug. 5th, my precious angels asked me, "Mommy, can we make tomorrow our first day of school?"  Who was I to say no to their desire to learn?  LOL  All I can say is that the first two days have been good, but slightly hectic.  Trying to get a 5yo. and a 9yo settled in with their work, while chasing the 22 month old and taking breaks to breastfeed the 4 month old wears me out!  I'm so happy to rest in the afternoon when the little guys are napping. 

We had a fun weekend.  My DH was going to a meeting in Albuquerque, so the rest of us tagged along.  My MIL and sister live there, along with my cousin and her kiddos.  We had a blast!  We went to the Rio Grande Zoo, took the kids to Peter Piper Pizza, and had a great BBQ with our friends. 

I'm almost out of battery power on this computer, so I'm off for awhile.  When I get this Powerbook recharged, and have more time later, I'll have to give you all more updates on our trip to Albuquerque.  My husband's friend has the sweetest wife, and I just think she's great.  You'll have to check out her blog...Holy Mama!  She's lots of fun, and her kids are way too cute.

Blessings until next time!

I'm glad things are going good with you. We will be starting school on the 13th, I'm still waiting for a couple of books to come in. I'm looking forward to hearing more about your trip. :)
