another year begins

And so it begins....another year of school!  Slowly we are putting our lazy summer days behind us, and are finding our way through routine days, school events, meetings, and the list grows and grows every day.  Structure is nice, but then again so are those unscheduled days and weeks that we have been so accustomed to over the past few months.
This year marks the first time ever, that both Aidan and Maelle will be gone all day....staying for lunch and enjoying time with their old friends and new.  It also marks the first time ever that I finally have some mommy (and of course daddy) time with just Bree and Jenna.  Boy are we going to be busy! 

Aidan - Grade 3

Maelle - Grade 1 

We are almost at the end of week one, and the kids are tired, but it looks as though this is going to be a fabulous school year!  Good luck Aidan and Maelle!
