Isaac's First Day of Junior High

I am officially the mother of a son who attends Junior High. How can that be? I have told him several times this week (and it is only Tuesday), that he is still my baby. He, of course, looks at me.....and then I notice that he has started shaving, his feet are as big as Dave's, and he is pretty much the same height as me, and I realize that my first born is not so small anymore. He is on his way to being a man. And I love it.


The only bad thing about starting school today is that he was the only one up at 6:45 this morning. Here is what everyone else was doing.


Andrew, asleep on Isaac's floor. He did not want to miss seeing Isaac head out the door. He slept right through it.


Aleah and Dave. Poor Aleah is on her third antibioticc for a nasty ear infection. She has needed extra love these past few weeks.


Yummy! Luke and his highly nutritious 'breakfast in bed'.

I was out of bed just in time to make sure my young man had eaten breakfast, flossed and brushed, put on deodorant, and taken off all tags and stickers from his school clothes. Do you blame me? If you look closely, my bed already has three people in it, not counting me!
