Hello all! If your kiddos started school today I hope they had a great day!
Happy moment one: Krispy Kreme doughnut with Joel for his first day of Kindergarten breakfast! It was so fun and the machines were on and we all got to watch them make the doughnuts and then we all got one for free! Joel and Connor SUCKED them down whole! LOL It was such a great family morning and I am so thankful I was able to take it all in and enjoy each moment. Gotta say though, walking to and from school would have been WAY more fun without the 99 degree heat and 80% humidity! PHEW was it hot out there today! We waited 10 minutes outside Joel's classroom door today and were soaking wet by the time we got in there! It was so cute to watch Joel go in the room and peruse and take it all in. While we were listening to the teacher go over a lot of information, at one point, we noticed Joel looking at "how to write numbers 0-9 up on the wall. He was tracing the number in the air with one eye closed...so happy he is ready to learn! David and I feel really good about his teacher and he is so excited to be dropped off...with me leaving...tomorrow...and I won't be there.....and I have to leave.......oh boy.......brb........*sniffle sniffle*....*sounds of nose being blown into a kleenex*......
Krispy Kreme time!
So on to happy moment two: I have been thinking about my sweet puppy Daisy a lot today. It is never sad thoughts when thinking about that spunky pup! I miss her, and I am sad she isn't here for hugs and all of these moments we have had without her, but I think about her joyful, exuberant attitude and it makes me want to do better. It was 3 months ago today that she left our lives. Since then I bought a cute doggie sign that says, "Always try to be the kind of person your dog THINKS you are" and I am really trying for you Daisy. Trying to find those happy moments and I know you are near whenever the breeze blows on my face, or whenever I pass the grassy area by our home where you made me spend HOURS of my life chucking a ball from a long stick :-) You know you had a truly amazing creature if even the UPS man sheds a tear and STILL comes to your door to ask how you are doing without that "sweet dog". I have finally put all of the pictures of her in one place and am going to put a book together about her so we can enjoy the memories of her forever. Like the fact that for Daisy, sharing was NOT caring. That dog would find every ball out on a field and put it all in one spot and then lay down on them so they could be all hers! She would sit and smile with her little proud ears pinned back as if to say, "well, I am quite pleased with myself and now I have all the balls!" See? Happy moments abound when thinking of my little girl! Well, off to finish up for the night. Have to make sure my bag of obligated school goodies for the teacher has our name on it lol. Have a happy night all!
