Now I'm getting to take Elijah shopping for school supplies. He is so excited to start first grade. I love seeing these moments through the eyes of my own children.
19. A weekend visit to my grandmother's house in North Carolina. I'm so thankful to have been able to grow up visting these mountains during the summer, and now I'm thankful to have been able to take my own children to visit this place that is so vivid in my memory.
20. A few date nights with my husband before school starts. Momma and Daddy have the boys, so we don't have to pay daycare for them this week. God bless my parents...they are the BEST grandparents in the world. I know how exhausting my two kids can be...read the post called "War Zone" for a picture of what a day with my kids looks like. It is quite an adventure. I sure do miss those little boogers when they're not with me.
21. A new school year. It makes me sad to see the summer come to an end; all that time with the boys now behind me until next year. But I am excited to see what God has in store for this new school year. Having lunch at the Swanson with all of the ladies was the perfect way to start the school year. Now I just pray that I can get everything done before next Monday. And I pray for a blessing on this new year. New students. Clean slates. Lord, use me in the lives of my students. Help me to be a blessing in the lives of the people I come across every day. Be glorified in my classroom, Father. Allow it to be a place of peace in the lives of my students. Help me impart wisdom to these young ones that you are trusting me with.
