2 delightful hours

My 3 darling daughters were at school, and sweet Michael was napping. Need I say more???

Our first days of school were everything we could have hoped for. Fun friends, great teachers, a 4th grade planner for Marky, new computers for Maddie, a High School Musical folder for Meredith. I am so thankful for the girls' schools and teachers this year. it's going to be a GREAT one!!

Preschool Princess

Meredith's new preschool teacher came over tonight to meet her. Meredith showed her teacher her new clothes, spelled her name for her, and told her what her sister's names were. The important things. Miss Mielke asked Meredith what she liked to do, and we named a few things. Playing dress up, coloring, playing dress up... and then Miss Mielke gave Meredith the BEST news. She told her that there is a Belle costume at school to play dress up in. I wish that I had captured the delight on Meredith's face with the camera. She just couldn't believe how good she was going to have it - a Belle dress at home AND at school!! Only 1 more day!!!

Treasures

Yesterday afternoon, the kids and I went to the flea markets to "treasure hunt". It was a great time! I hope that I can pass on to my kids the enjoyment of looking for something special. Although I prefer to go by myself, it was really fun to hear them when they found something "cool" or "beautiful". Here is a view of what I found yesterday.
