Where does it all go?

Today is one of those days when I look back and can't put my finger on what exactly I did today.  I just know that I am tired.  This week has been a taxing one with many ups and downs.  Although, it seems like more ups may be on the way.

The kids go back to school in a little less than 3 weeks.  Everyone will be in school this year.  Jacob is going into kindergarten and is over the moon about going to a "big" school.  Xavier is excited and nervous about being in a different school.  Paige is transitioning into intermediate school and an honors program.

Paige is going to be 10 this year.  I'm not sure why that seems like it is such a big deal.  It's probably because it will be the very first double digit birthday.  She will never be a single digit again.  How have we survived almost 10 years of being parents?  10 years... That's a decade!  Holy smokes!

We have lived in Franklin for 3 years.  As much as I miss my family (even though they are 3 hours away) and Jay misses his in CA, this feels like home.  This area has offered us so many wonderful things.  We have found an amazing church and lifelong friends.  Our kids are in amazing schools with amazing teachers and staff!  I have stumbled onto an amazing nursing program with dedicated instructors.  This is such a wonderful area to grow a family.
