Although over the tears, I still find myself missing my two big boys during the day.  They've had a great first week and seem to really be enjoying their teachers and classes.  Caleb is being used as the errand runner for Mrs. Tennison – she's already sensed his loyal and responsible nature.  And Jacob is really appreciating all of the science and investigating they do in 3rd grade.

This morning when Caleb jumped up in to our bed for scripture study he asked, "Do I have to go again today?" and "Can Kindergarten only be 14 days?"  These first days and weeks are SO long for these little ones and early bed times have been not only necessary, but welcomed! 

I was walking by the refrigerator a couple of nights ago and saw this…

Caleb is always making me little things and putting them up all over the house.  He made this particular one sometime this summer…months ago.  But this was the first time I had REALLY noticed it and it brought tears to my eyes.  If you've ever read The Kissing Hand book you'll know why.  Just a little reminder that I am loved by a child…what could be better?
