Saved by the Bell

While summer is a wonderful break from the mundane schedule of life, it was so good to get the girls back into the routine of things! **************************

Missy began 3rd grade Aug 19th and while she was anxious about being in a new building, she was pleasantly surprised when she knew almost all of the kids in her class. It was good to be reunited with friends from years past. The overwhelming amount of homework hasn't started yet - so it is still an enjoyable time for all of us.
*************************
Sissy began her first day of Pre-K on Friday. She was so excited to go back to school to see her friends, too! I will surely be a bawling mess next year when she starts Kindergarten! I can't believe she is nearing 5 yrs old so rapidly! Daddy caught this precious bunny moment on film and I couldn't pass publishing it!

Even Granma didn't realize how wonderful it was to have the girls back in school until one afternoon when the killing began - again. Sissy spit on Missy and Missy was about to have her head for it. The screaming and thrashing began all over. THEN Granma realized HOW glad she was she'd been saved by the proverbial 'bell' of fall.
