School Days

Well my boys have been back in school now for a little over a month! Hard to believe! Garrett took to preschool like a champ. He held tight to my pants leg but there were no tears.....from him LOL. I cried almost the whole way home. Because Big Joe has missed so much of the kids' lives he realizes that even starting preschool is a pretty big deal. He took a break from work and met me up there and Garretto was so happy that his Dad was there.
I keep thinking about when Little Joe started preschool....it really doesn't seem like that long ago...but when you look at Lil Joe now...yea it's been a while. He is loving the second grade. He has the same teacher as least year which I am very thankful for. She knows what makes Joe tick and she knows how to handle his feeding pump. It was a very smooth transition. He is bringing homework with the words "reading comprehension". Holy moly!!! He's so smart though he doesn't even bat an eye. His doctor at Vanderbilt commented on his brains. We are really blessed with him.
So having the boys at school leaves three mornings a week with me and Bug alone. She is eating it up!!! I have started running again with her in a jogging stroller. It's going really well. But I can't help but think this year will be precious as she may be headed to preschool next year (depending on the birthday cut-off). Ah they grow so fast, but I am loving every minute of it.
