Just Us

Excitement is rising in our household:

School starts on Tuesday. We took the boys to the school to see a posting of their class list and teacher. Once inside the building, the reality of school starting finally sunk in and now they are looking forward to it.

I am so looking forward to my normal routine, however busy it is going to be. We spent this week planning our days into the New Year. Feels good.

While enjoying his yummy ice cream, Jacob lost another tooth last night. What surprise for all of us, especially the tooth fairy who thought he might be writing a check but managed to scrounge up some change!

My boy is having a birthday on Friday!!!!! Joel is so excited to be turning 6 and partying with friends. He is so easy to please. We have no gift for him yet. I asked him the other day, "Joel, what do you really want for your birthday, mommy wants to get you a present soon?" Shrugging his shoulders he replied, "Uhh I don't know." "Come on Joel", I nagged, "What do you want?" "Just you guys!" he said.
Awww!

What an incredible response Joel gave. Says something about his parents! Keep up the good work with those three - they're so fortunate to have you and Steve!
