First Day of School - Fall 2013

The first day of school is always a fun day! There are of course bits of nervousness (for both the children and the mommy) and moments that are truly surreal. But folks - I now have two children in Elementary School. Gabriella joined the ranks at Weatherford Elementary this year as our newest Eagle. She is a school-lover and Kindergarten has been no exception. While she does lament at how long the days are (7:45am-2:45pm), she does enjoy being there!

Oliver is in 2nd grade this year. The desks are taller, the toys in the classroom fewer, and the learning more advanced. He's growing up. I know this, yet am still surprised when I see things that manifest it so clearly. He was proud to lead his sister through his well known and well loved school. He has been a great asset to have in getting her acclimated to a new place as well as a great comfort to his mother as she sends another baby into a big school (and home on the bus!!!)

We are so thankful for our school and it's staff. We have had so many great experiences there and know that this year will not be any different.

Here are some shots from that first morning!

We are so thankful for you two! Your teachable and obedient natures plus your friendliness will help you both go far in your days at Weatherford!

I would like to thank Ultimate Life Clinic for reversing my father's Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). My father’s ALS condition was fast deteriorating before he started on the ALS Herbal medicine treatment from Ultimate Life Clinic. He was on the treatment for just 6 months and we never thought my father will recover so soon. He has gained some weight in the past months and he is able to walk with no support. You can reach them through there website www.ultimatelifeclinic.com
