I don't even know how long it has been since I wrote on here. This is my last summer before I start working to have off with the boys. Although I have a few teacher workshops to go to next month I am trying to soak up all of the time I can with them before I am a "working mom". I know I will miss them but I am so excited about starting my career. I have worked so hard to get to this point and I am so excited about teaching. I am the new Junior High Business Teacher at Two Rivers School District. I am very excited to get started in August!
JT will start kindergarten next year. He was 8 days shy of meeting the age deadline for this year. I think we probably would have held him back anyways. He is one smart cookie, but we have had several friends and family members tell us that once the younger boys hit middle school the maturity level and size difference really starts to show. Plus I get to keep my baby home an extra year before he leaves for college right? :) I would much rather him go to college at age 19 rather than 18! Will's birthday is a few months before the deadline, but we are thinking about holding him back also when he gets to this point. Financially it will be harder in the early years with daycare costs, but later we will have one leaving college when the other one gets in. So hopefully it will work out better that way. Decisions, Decisions!
Both boys are doing great! JT is excited about going back to his daycare this year and Will has learned so much already this summer, I am excited to see him make friends and be in the older class. Zach is enrolled to start working on his bachelor's degree this Fall. He only has about a month left at Tyson, then we will be without an income for an entire month before I get paid... EEEKKK. I think we have planned well, but it still freaks me out a little.
Here is an Easter Picture of our sweet little family:
