First day of School for Logan and Makayla

Logan and Makayla love school! I'm so lucky to have two very motivated, smart, love everything about learning, kids. They had a super first day of school. Logan started Kindergarten this year. I had a much harder time with this than he did. He was so ready for kinder, just missing the deadline last year, and loves all the hands on projects and activities he gets to do in school. I on the other hand, missed him that first day and wondered how on earth he was going to survive on his own all day without me. He did fine. He is my sweetheart, and apparently, all the girls in his class and the class next door think so too. : ) His teacher says he is a good friend and loves to participate and help in class. She says that if she needs the right answer, she knows she can always call on Logan. I'm happy he is doing so well in kinder, and I am starting to enjoy the "me" time I get during the day now.

Makayla started 4th grade this year. When did I get old enough to have a fourth grader? She seems so grown up this year, and she loves everything about school. She is becoming very responsible about finishing her homework, and it's nice not to have to worry that she is doing well in school. She is a good friend and a good example to her classmates, and her teacher tells me Makayla gets everyone excited about what they are learning in class and exemplifies leadership qualities.
Savannah sure misses Logan and Makayla during the day, and was so happy to see them after their first day of school! She is my little buddy, my little helper, and my little mischief maker. She loves to follow me around the house helping with the laundry, cooking dinner, doing dishes, dusting, sweeping, and anything else that I am doing. I hope this enthusiasm for housework continues! : ) Savannah is loving all the one on one attention she is getting from mom now. She tries so hard to be big like Kayla and Logan and wants to do everything they are doing. I'm lucky that she has two great examples in her big brother and sister.
