Well, we made it through our first week of school. Whew! Jeffrey and Josiah are stilling learning the ropes of homework and procedures, but have figured out where their classrooms are, and where to go when. They have an alternating A and B day schedule. I like that they won't need to turn in homework the next morning, they'll always have a day between. We have CAP on Monday nights and Youth Group on Wednesday nights, so they'll have to concentrate on homework on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I discovered that I also am committed to helping with homework on Tuesdays and Thursdays. :)
The other kids also got their first week of school under their belt. We had a few books arrive on Tuesday and Wednesday, but now are going full steam. We are hoping to use this extra week for an extra week off in December. We'll see what happens. :)
This week the kids' Great Aunt Mary arrived from TX for a 2 week visit. We are delighted to have her here! We've had 3 big supper meals in a row, with lots of laughter and visiting. I love seeing her smile and laugh at the kids' antics and the boys' stories from school. Family is so fun. We are looking forward to the weekend ahead.

Glad that the boys are adjusting well at school...sometimes could be difficult - and how are you adjusting to them not being home??
Yes, family is fun...so good to enjoy time together especially when they live further away!
Where do you have them in school?
We just started our school year too! It is always an exciting time.
