Last Day of School!

Today was the last day of school. I have to say that it has been a great year for my kids. We started at a brand-new elementary school that opened just down the street from us. I actually had them transferred to another school, but felt right about them going to this school so I rescinded the transfer request less than two weeks before the beginning of school. I love the principal. I love the school. I love the teachers. It has been a great year. It will be fun for C, since he will be in the first class to go through all the grades at this school. K loved her teacher so much that there were tears in both of their eyes (her teacher's and hers) as they hugged goodbye.

I am excited to have them home with me, too. I am not looking forward to the bickering, which I know will go on...but other than that...I have great kids and I love being with them. We had even seriously considered the homeschooling thing for next year, but finally I felt better about having them in this awesome school we have been blessed with. It just wasn't right for our family at this time. For one thing, with a baby and a business, I don't think I could really do school right. Perhaps the time will come a little later. I would love to homeschool and I think with my teaching degree and experience, as well as love and dedication, that I could do a really good job at it.
