It may be a slow start!

Okay- I am finally going to try this whole blog thing. I am apprehensive- but I guess it won't hurt to try. Tonight is the night before the first day of school. I have so much to do like make lunches and iron clothes- but I am stalling instead. I bawled my eyes out when I put Westin to bed. I can not believe that he will be in Kindergarten! My baby will be gone. We had a family meeting tonight to tell the kids how proud we are of them. Madalyn and Chad have always been perfect at school. We can always be proud to be their parents. Now- we have high hopes for Westin!! Lets see if he can rise to the occasion. We said a prayer for each of the kids-- we focused more on Westin!! He is just so used to getting what he wants at home- and he is so dang cute- we can't resist!! He can't be the baby of the family like he is at home when he is at school- I hope we haven't ruined him.

We are so glad that they will all be together at the same school this year! It is the only year- next year Madalyn is off to Middle School (scary). We have so many hopes for them this year. We hope that they will always do their best, that they will treat people fairly, kindly and with respect, we hope that they will choose good friends, that they will set a good example for those around them, we hope that they are safe, that they make good choices. We hope that their teachers will love them almost as much as we do and that they will love going to school.

Tomorrow I will post pictures.... I hope I can figure it out!!!
