Since Ethan started Kindergarten, we've been in a period of adjustment in our lives. We're figuring out how to live around his school schedule. He's doing a great job with the transition, I didn't realize how difficult it would be on Lucy and myself. It's just more time consuming than I had expected. Three days a week, our routine consists of; waking up and having breakfast, dropping E off at school, dropping Lucy off at Grandma's, going to work, picking up Lucy, picking up Ethan, going home and making dinner and lunch for the next day. We're figuring it out.
It's been such a blessing that one of Ethan's friends has a little sister just slightly older than Lucy, and, they get along. On the mornings that she doesn't want to go to drop him off, I just make sure to emphasize that her friend Aubrey will be there and then she's ready to go.

We're still living up that last of our warm days, just on the weekends.
These two have become such adventurers;

We're also finding time to celebrate our marriage. This past August marked 8 years of marriage, 13 years of being in a committed relationship together. There's no where I'd rather be than with Michael, he is home. It feels good to be able to say that with stronger meaning than I could have imagined 8 years ago.
