Back to School They Go

 Yesterday I sent Anna Mei to preschool for the first time.  She enjoyed her morning and reported every detail of snack when she got home because she was fascinated by the rainbow colored goldfish crackers.  She is excited to be in the same school with Emily and her big friends (the teens in our ministry).

 The girls are attending the christian school that is a part of our church's ministry.  Anna Mei will be there on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and she will be sure to see her big sis often.

Tenth grade.  How did we get here?  Em was happy with her first day.  She has started her year off well.  Her class load includes a few AP courses and she just added Drama Tech.  She is busy with volleyball and didn't even get home until after 8:00 PM last night as the day was full of activity..school until noon, lunch with friends, volleyball, and sports night.  I am exhausted for her already!  Tenth Grade will be gone in the blink of an eye, but until then I will try to savor it.
