I can't believe that summer vacation has come to an end. I hope that doesn't mean that summer weather has come to an end quite yet. Cuz, boy this has been the warmest, sunniest summer that I can remember! But yes, my little girls were up bright and early; Audrey at 5:30 and Faith at 6:30 and eager to get back to their friends at Enosburg! I too really enjoy seeing that big yellow bus!! Now I can get organized, get some housework done, have some much needed quiet time and maybe make them a special snack (like whoopie pies) for when they get home!
So glad I got a new camera for the first day! Ritual is to take a picture of each kid at the door and then some more pics outside. Of course I must get all my shots in before the bus gets there. Mom is forbidden to be outside when the bus gets there: I might embarrass somebody wearing my pajamas! horrors!

So after so many years of getting 5 kids out on that bus; Jake, Nolan, Holly, Audrey and Faith; now we are down to two! It is still so busy around here and I continue to wonder how I ever got all of them out there on time!?? I guess God gives you the strength and energy to do what you need to do!
So now, I have only two children to get off to school. It seems so lonely. But the others are grown and moving on. That must be why he brought us Grover! A new puppy to fill in the empty spaces left by Holly, Nolan and Jake. God must have known I'd need a buddy now that my nest is emptying out.
He always knows just what we need even though I thought I didn't want or need a dog. He gives and takes away, my heart will choose to say Blessed be His Name! Thanks to God for giving me a beautiful family, a wonderful loving husband and even a new puppy that I didn't know I needed!
