It happened! School has arrived, and the kids are in it!! Time for newfound routine. Time for less time in close proximity and therefore less fighting. Time for socializing with new friends, and growing in all kinds of ways.
Roll call!

Laela (who clearly felt self conscious in front of her friend this morning) is in grade…

Everyone is aging so fast (myself included) and while parts of me ache for younger years, the bigger part of me is positively loving watching them grow and change and become older versions of themselves. They are aging like good cheese – a little stinky, perhaps, but bringing a richness that I had no idea we lacked until it showed up.
I love you goofy kids SO very much 💜 Happy first day!
