Last minute prep

School starts Monday and so I decided I'd better do some of that school stuff that I was going to do all summer to prepare the kids today. Oh, we did some here and there, but not as much I as meant to.

While the kids were doing some writing, (J some sentences, E her ABC's)...

V was doing some reading on his own.

E got a chance a couple weeks ago to meet her kindergarten teacher and take a ride on a school bus. She loved every minute of it.

OH my. My girl is going to school.

My girl who loves to look pretty in a dress...

and play in the dirt.

I'm excited for her but I'm going to miss her too.

Even her moody days like this.
