First Grade

And just like that summer is "over" and another school year has begun. 

It is still strange to say goodbye to her in the morning and not see her for hours and I get so excited when it's time to pick her up!

    Sigh. :( That is nice that she has three friends already. Her braids look so cute! Gah. It is okay to miss our kids. Sniff sniff. That is really cool that her class has a bunny. I am a little jealous.

    Makes me want to go out and buy glue and pencils and paper. Ok, I did just go out and buy school stuff, but IT WAS ON SALE! I just love back to school sales. I always missed having my kids around and a bit jealous of the time they spent in school. Sigh. First graders are still so little and yet so big too.

ThanksGIVEaway

This giveaway is now CLOSED. In a week we will find ourselves feasting with family and friends.  We will reflect on and share with each other the good things in life that we are grateful for.  And I think that's great, to give thanks. My heart lately though has been leaning in a slightly different direction, I've felt an emphasis on a different part of the name of next week's holiday.  My heart is filled with gratitude to people who have reached out in love, sympathy, and support when they see others in need..  Those who have voiced prayers, and kind thoughts and words on our behalf, and on behalf of people seeking comfort everywhere.  The people who have watched children, sent flowers, made meals, and done so much more to try and ease burdens.  And my thankful heart wants to GIVE back to these people, as a small way of saying Thank You. So today I present you with my ThanksGIVEaway.  You know those big fancy blogs that are sponsored by corporat...

Haven't Been Posting

Well, I haven't gotten on my computer much lately, and most of you are probably angry with me because I haven't been answering my phone either. (I know, I know, you hate it when I do that.) This really isn't the way I wanted to do this, but I think it's going to be a while before I manage to get everyone called, and maybe this will make you not hate me so much. This is the main reason I've been so sick and tired lately: This, and I've just plain been sick this week. It's no fun when you're not allowed to take anything! (Ok, I know it's never fun to be sick, but please pity me. Please?) :) So, look for Baby Rose #2 January 20th, 2010!!! YIKES.
