Well, this year marks a milestone. This is the first year that all three boys will be in school full time. Nicholas is now in 4th grade, Cody is now in 3rd grade and Brett is now in 1st grade. I remember back when I was home with all three boys...when all three were in diapers at the same time and I could never get one minute to myself. I remember thinking, "Wow, what will life be like when they are all in school and I actually have time to myself?"
Well, the time has arrived!! Since I only work part time, I am off on Mondays and last Monday after I took the boys to school, I had to sit back and reflect. Although it was eerily quiet around the house, I have to admit, I did relish in the fact that I had all day to myself with nobody else's demands for my time!! I was able to clean the house without racing against the clock, take a nice restful shower, spend extra time reading, and get dinner prepared ahead of time. By 3:00, I was so excited to see my boys. I had actually missed them!!!
Although I often reminisce and wish I had more time with them as babies, I can already tell that I am really going to enjoy this season just as much as those in the past!!
Here are some pics of the boys in the cool new outfits Grandma Dorothy bought them for the first day:
