Today was Lukie’s first real day of preschool!  Last week, he informed me that he was to little to go to school.  “Look at me.  I’m little.  I can’t go to school,” he told me.
However, after meeting his teachers last week during orientation, he couldn’t wait to start school.  This morning he woke up, got [...]

…a post where I’m not bitching about something. Not that I couldn’t, but I think it’s time for a change of pace.
The plumber came today and all will be fixed. We have a home warranty, so we don’t have to worry about the cost. Whoohoooo!

This morning, I took Crazy I and Crazy II uniform shopping. Thankfully we got there right as the doors were opening and just before the rush. (There was a line out of the store by the time we left.) Jack will wear essentially the same thing he wore last year.

“Why is he frowning?” I asked Jack.
“Because he’s really, really [...]

It was bound to happen. Really. It was only a matter of time. I’m just surprised it took almost two years.
Two years of dragging kids in and out of the car. Two years of going in and out of those preschool doors three days a week. Two years of standing [...]

I absolutely love the fact that we have Jack in Catholic school. It is the right place for him. His teacher is wonderful and we are part of a terrific community there. It kills me that we’re moving away and that our future is so up in the air right now.

Do you think he’ll be this excited when it’s his own homework in a few years?
