Wow, I am getting worn out, but I am totally loving my life right now. We have completed almost 5 weeks of school, soccer has started, dance has started, Zachary's co-op has started, team kid at church has started and on Sunday Zachary will start little praisers (a choir group for little children at our church). It took some trial and error on how to teach a kindergartner a preschooler and keep two toddlers happy and somewhat quiet and contained. I have to admit that the first few weeks Adam could have just looked at me and I would start crying. I was tired, stressed, and I felt my house wasn't getting clean...there goes my OCD again. Well, I finally figured out a routine! Praise the Lord! The kids are enjoying school and learning so much. I want to go out and buy some beginner reader books because I think Zachary is getting close to reading. Lindsay and Zachary are playing soccer this year. Zachary picked it back up like riding a bike. Lindsay is liking soccer, but not loving it like dance. She LOVES dance and is doing so well. I can't watch her the whole time because I have to keep Nicholas and Brandon entertained in the little playroom and I try to continue Zachary's schooling so we are not doing it all afternoon. The other Mom's have been giving her tons of praise and informing me on how well she is doing. I am pretty sure by Christmas I will be totally drained and ready for a break, but now I am going to live by the moment even if that means I can't even use the potty without somebody knocking on the door...

Lindsay's first day of dance


I try to involve the little boys the best I can. Lindsay was learning the letter Cc this week, so everybody made car tracks.



Zachary and Lindsay's first soccer game. Nicholas was proud to wear one of Zachary's old soccer jersey.

Zachary's first day of co-op. He is really having a blast. I am glad he likes it and he feels like he is going to "real" school. Now if only CCA could arrange a school bus pick up, he would be one happy boy. :)
