Routine...

So school has started and all is good. The boys are going to a brand new school this year that is just down our street at the bottom it out hill. They ride their bikes so in the morning it is a quick trip but at the end of the day when they are tired the uphill ride is a little harder. As soon as the snow comes I will drive them but for now they don't complain. They seem to be enjoying their teachers and classmates. The only complaint is the assigned seating at lunch. This year they have a before lunch recess instead of an after lunch recess which is great, why didn't anyone think of this before. You see with the after lunch recess all the kids eat three bites of lunch and throw the rest away so they can play. This way they are a little worn out and sit and eat all their lunch. My boys have even asked for an extra sandwich at times. Emma is in her last year in Junior High and she loves it. It is all about the socialization at this age. She isn't the biggest fan if homework but she doesn't it without complaint. She is in a peer-tutor class where she assist Autistic and mentally handicapped children and I think it is her favorite class. She loves interacting with the kids. She is growing up so fast and before I blink I am sure she will be dating and driving and worrying me to death. As for me, I am enjoying the quiet...noise makes me so anxious! I am working Monday afternoons and Thursday and Friday nights. I am hoping to pick up more days or find another part-time something for days. I have done a little sewing but not as much as I have liked. You would think my house would be spotless but it isn't. I am working on some new vinyl lettering signs to advertise for the holidays...one is so awesome I am hoping it will get me some Christmas money with the holiday orders. Other than all these things are lives are pretty normal...for now.
