First Day!!



Here's a photo of my 3rd grader.  He was excited and nervous as he walked into his new school today.  My heart felt for him and I couldn't really relate because I never moved across country as a child.  He is a trooper and I know he is experiencing so many changes all at once!  So, say a prayer for Christopher today as he starts this journey.  He's a friendly kid, so hopefully he'll receive some kindness/friendliness in return.  As Mom always said to me, "In order to have friends, you need to be friendly".

So, on yesterday's blog I asked all of you what you did on your kid's first day back at school.  I had a whole agenda of things planned out, but sometimes things don't go as planned.  I received a call late last night from

 
saying that my patio table is being delivered between 9:30 and 11:30 today! 
 
After that, I am heading right over to this place...
 
There's a brand new Home Goods opening about a mile from our home TODAY, so I am going to head over and see if I can snag any good deals.  It's been a long time since I've wandered a store by myself and I think some good browsing/retail therapy is in order.

After that, I may just come home, have a cup of coffee and do absolutely NOTHING.  Doesn't that sound wonderful!! I may have to close my eyes though so I am not tempted to see all the work that needs to be done around here. 

Enjoy your day everyone!

Praying for Chis, he and Davey are kind of in the same boat. Hope all works out well. I mentioned to Davey this morning, to be friendly to the other kids, too....I sure hope he took my advice, cause this morning he was standing on iine not talking to anyone :( Prayer helps, so I will keep Chris in prayer! I'm home today doing what I love best, in the kitchen, and doing things in the house! Love ya!
