They were SO excited. I have to admit I was not super thrilled. We were so busy getting the preschool ready this summer, I looked up and summer was over . . . sad! 
First day of school is just another reminder to me that my babies aren't babies anymore. Dalyn is in third grade, Raegan is starting first, 
First day of school is just another reminder to me that my babies aren't babies anymore. Dalyn is in third grade, Raegan is starting first, and Ryan started preschool today! 
I find myself looking back at pictures from last year and thinking they look so young, and every once in a while I look up from my crazy, busy life and realize they are still so young but they are growing up SO fast.
People who have been there tell me to cherish this time, and I am really trying, some days are easier then others, of course, but it helps to remember that once this moment is gone, I won't be able to get it back, and I know I will miss it. I just hope I can take advantage of this time with them and live so I don't have any regrets or look up in 5 years and realize I was so busy with details that I missed them growing up even though I was in the middle of it. I love being a mom, and I love my babies. As much as I love this time with them when they are so little I am enjoying all the stages as they come, sometimes I just wish time wasn't so cruel and would stop stealing my babies away from me right before my eyes.
They are stinkin' cute though.
They love waiting for the bus together. They jump over the car shadows as they drive past. When the bus drops them off after school Ryan and Grae are always waiting with open arms for their big brother and sis. 
I am enjoying my time at home with Ryan and Grae too. Homemade play-doh is a fave!

Yay to being a mom! It's funny how I look at other peoples kids and am shocked at how fast theirs are growing up. It's seldom that I realize that my kids are growing up just as fast. Time is cruel, it probably won't be long till were sending young men out on missions, and planning weddings! Enjoy those days that Graeson can stay in her nightgown all morning, those are the absolute best!
