Gabriel, Charlene and Joseph on their first day of school August 18, 2009

So this year is the first year that all 4 of my kiddos are in school.

Cooper is living with his dad for highschool, so I didnt get to embarrass him with a first day of school picture...But he is enjoying highschool so far and one of the highlights for him, besides FOOTBALL, is that he can eat and drink IN CLASS hehe Thats a big NoNo in Middle School, so its exciting :)

Gabriel started 4th grade this year. It is still hard for me to accept he is growing up! He loves his teacher. It is his first male teacher. He is a young guy and has a lot of fun ideas for teaching, so its just what Gabe needs!

Charlene started 1st grade, and that just seems impossible...She loves school just like Gabe, and is lucky to have her best friend (Coopers sister, Taylor) in her class this year. She is so excited to get to school each day and tell us all about it each night!

Joseph started PRESCHOOL this year and MOMMY is loving it...err I mean, JoJo is loving it. He doesnt ever want to go to school in the mornings, but when I pick him up after lunch, he seems to have had a good time. Its hard for him because its been me and him for so long :) Ok ok..its hard for mommy too!! Haha But we are both adjusting and he is really learning a lot...He can already write JoJo and is learning to write Joey...and he can type both with noooo help! Smart lil man :)

Well there ya have it...my kids are all growing up and I cant make it stop!
