1st day of school

Today Clint and I dropped three of our four children off at school...one of them for the first time. This year we have a 5th grader, a 2nd grader, and a Kingergartener. Poor little Cayson didn't quite understand what was going on. As we made our way through the building, dropping off one kid, and the next, and the next, you could see him starting to pick up on what was happening. It was like the lightbulb just went on for him, "Wait! They are staying here!" When we began to leave Caitlin in her K room, Cayson started crying. He finally figured it out. I'm glad someone got to cry. I knew I would but the morning was so hectic and busy that I didn't have time to think about it and just process until after we got home. Why oh why is that Kindergarten drop off soooo hard?

Oh my, its quiet in the house today. But that can be good right? Thank you Lord for summer. But thank you for school. Thank you for children romping through the house, laughing, fighting, creating. But thank you for the quiet...time to reflect, be still, and give some much needed one-on-one time to my little guy.

Can't wait to see what God has in store for us today!
