The girls have been in school now for a few weeks and love, love, love it! Ellie was never an early riser but now, if her alarm goes off before mine, she's waking me up, ready to start the day. She comes home bubbling with things to tell me. And Campbell is enjoying herself too. She goes 3 hours a day to the same place and is adapting well to that schedule.
It's still hot and humid here, even in September. But there has been a definite cooling down as we've had some very rainy weather. I'm still trying to unpack the house. I'm planning Ellie's birthday party for the 19th so I need to have the house presentable by then.
Unpacking has been easy and hard. There is not an unopened box left that I don't know what's in it. If I really had to, I could get the dadmobile in the garage. I should be done with the house in the next few days. But dang if there aren't some hard moments. I was sitting here going through some of the girls artwork and school stuff. And folded up in the pile was a calendar page Jennifer had kept for September '04. Stuff like "Mom and Dad arrive", "UT v. Arkansas", the week count for Ellie and September 21.
That September seems so far away. Yeah, it's been 6 years. It was a long time ago. Time flies when your having fun. And sometimes even more when your not.
