All I can say is that I really do not like the first day of school! I love my boys being home and that we don't have too much of a schedule to keep. Don't get me wrong, we are super busy in the summer! There's always lots to do on the farm and the work is never done! But I love love love my boys being around home. They make messes, fuss, and annoy me but that feeling usually lasts a few minutes before I'm laughing or in deep conversation about life and realize how lucky I am! I cherish my time with them! It's so much fun to watch them learn and grow into grown up people with opinions and thoughts, even when they're not like mine! It's an indescribable feeling and I don't want to lose it!

Back to school symbolizes another year gone by...it means that my boys are growing up and closer to the end goal of leaving home and spreading their wings...it makes me think of all the things I meant to do with them and never got around to it...it means schedules to keep...it means growing up! I saw a toddler shirt the other day that said Don't Grow Up...It's a Trick. I thought it was funny but really when you stop and think about it, it's the absolute truth! I remember summer days lasting forever and counting down the days til I got my driver's license. It seemed to last forever...little did I know it would pass so very quickly! Don't you ever wish you knew then what you know now?! I do but then I wonder if I would if life would be the same...probably not!

The first day of school this year was hard for this girl! I really miss my dad! Anytime I would be upset about the boys growing up, he had a way of reminding me that that's what they're suppose to do! He'd tell me how it's my job to make them independent of me and to think for themselves. But the thing he'd always say..."You don't want to raise any titty baby, do you kid?" I could be crying my eyes out and when he'd say those words I'd just have to laugh. Like I said, he had a way with words! So after I cried a little I had to bust out laughing just thinking about my dad. I miss him everyday! I miss
his advice and guidance! So you know I'll Keep On Keepin' On!
