I cannot believe I have a 2nd grader and a 1st this year! The time truly flies. I am really trying to be more like the mother that raised me. We had a hot breakfast every morning before school and ALWAYS came home to a yummy treat. I want my girls to have me to turn to any minute of the day. They are my life. And, like my mother always did, I want to show them how much they mean to me. BUT, I will not deny that it is very nice having a quiet house while they are enjoying school five days a week. ;)
