School starts MONDAY!!!!!

And so it begins.....
My baby boy (Evan) will officially start "preschool" on Monday! He was in 3yr old kindergarten last year and will move up to 4 yr old kindergarten this year! And in 4year old they do all the "big school" stuff, not so much playtime! His teacher he was with last year moved up to 4yr old as well and we are fortunate enough that he is back in her room this year too! She awesome so Mike and I are very excited!!! Evan is soooo ready he can't stand it....he has asked me every morning for the past month "is it time to go to school?" Funny how they know when its getting close!

Ella is going to be at home with me for another year....next year she will go into the transition class when Evan goes to 5yr old kindergarten at BIG SCHOOL. haha!

On another note, i am realizing exactly how dependant on structure and scheduling my kids and even I am! Summertime is a free-for-all and very chaotic! needless to say alot of the days end with very tired and grouchy little people fighting sleep and arguing...lol. Even I am guilty of being grouchier than usual due to the inconsistency of our days...
BUT with a new school year comes a new schedule! Back to the days where everything is better planned, things are organized, and bedtime falls at a decent hour!!!

Oh and by the way- I, too, am going back to school. I am finishing up some courses that are required before I can join the Elementary Ed program at Ole Miss.....so please pray for me and wish me luck! It's been 10 years since I've had homework, study time and test!

Have a great weekend!
