School:)

Anyone who knows me and knows my family also knows I have never put a smiley behind the word school:) !

My son (knock on wood) is LOVING school. I have prayed and cried and begged for this day! He is in a portable (which trust me I was ill about at first) and there is so much less distraction. We also have an AMAZING teacher! She was his student teacher last year (so she already knows him and he knows her) and it is flowing so well.

Like I said in my earlier post "I only ask for what he can give me that day" and the past few days I have been in awe of my lil' man. WE DID HOMEWORK TONIGHT AND THERE WAS NO SCREAMING!

Kate, loves school as usual. She wanted to go back in the middle of summer. She says 4th grade is great!

My BABY starts school next week! There will be more to come reguarding this b/c I am devastated. However, she is ecstatic! She got a cute new backpack with her name embroidered on it! She goes for her testing in the morning. She can't wait to show them how smart she is!

I just had to share my good news!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in full consignment swing. I am working 40 hours for my girlfriend Brea. She has amazing full-time worker benefits that enable me to clothe my kids for 40 hours of my time per season. That saves on our budget tremendously! Also, I was able to barter some new clothes from my sisters boss for kate! I am going to pay them back subbing at her day care!
Zero down fall wardrobe to go!

Rachel,
I am heading up a children's consignment sale in Greenbrier with a friend of mine. I wanted to know if you would be interested in consigning some things. I have tried to call you, but have been unsuccesful in reaching you. Can you please call me if you have a chance, and if you don't have my phone # call Traci and give it to her. Thanks, LaDonna
