I LOVE MY KIDS

My kids and everyone seem to be doing pretty great. We're settling in to our school year routine - which is going pretty well considering all the changes this year. Luke is in 3rd grade and loving his class. Many of his friends are in his home room. Barring a trip to the principal's office for fighting, he's doing ok. He'll be doing dishes until August 4, 2010, but he's fine. :) Drew and Evan are together in Mrs. Willis' class in the 1st grade. They look like jack-o-lanterns. I don't know how they eat with so few teeth! They continue to be the ladies' men! We'll have to watch that...Gabriel is ornery and cute as always. He is going to preschool 3 days a week now, which is new from last year. He seems to getting things better this year, so that is a relief. He likes his time with my grandma on those days. It will be sad when they go to Florida in November. He enjoys being the "only" one getting the attention at her house. Maya is goofy, cuddly, energetic, demanding, busy, and all-around-awesome all the time. I can't imagine the void I would have always felt without her. I love her so much. I love them all, but I can honestly say now that I feel done. I feel like my family is complete with her. We're well-rounded now....something....I don't know how to quite explain it. All I know is that I'm loving the blessings I've been given. And they are such good kids. I know I'm bragging. Oh well....

Luke is playing football this year. He's on the 4th grade tackle team as a 3rd grade student, and he is playing REALLY well. I can't be more proud. Drew and Evan are on flag football again this year, and they are running backs, which makes them happy. And they're so fast, I imagine it will work out well for them. Gabriel isn't playing yet, but it won't be long.

I'm not good at blogging anymore - darn facebook...! :) HA HA! Come find me there!

Have a fantastic fall!
