try to remember the time in september


Michael plays on The Kicks.

This is what happens when you fly over your bike at a skate park.



First day of school. Yeah, we got the back-to-school haircuts after this.


Michael is home with a fever today. The school called me at work, and I immediately raced up only to find him playing in the nurse's office with some other kid. Real sick. Some fever. The distric policy now is that no child can return within 24 hours after being sent home with a fever. Fine. Except that my kid doesn't even have a fever anymore. He's fine. And now he has to miss his Halloween party, the costume parade, and so do I. I can't help in either his or Logan's class tomorrow, and I won't see all the cute kids. Just a little disappointed.

Since I can't really run the errands I was planning, I thought I'd update this blog that has been sorely neglected.
School started with a bang for all of us. Brian is part-time teacher/part-time Dean of Students and loving it. He also is going to Western in Bellingham for Admin. classes. It's a family effort. As is Logan's Challenge class. He's learning a ton, but the work is tough. We're hoping his funky combo of perfectionist/lazy boy will straighten out, so he can fly right.

Michael is shining in kindergarten, really blossoming. We weren't sure what living in Logan's shadow would be like, but it doesn't phase him. He loves school and while he is still a sideline observer, he's enjoying "his" school.

Soccer took off and we're just now winding down. Phew! With two nights a week and games every Saturday, it can eat up a fall season. The boys are both having fun and improving, though, so we can't complain.
And me? Well, I have the greatest job in the world. I get to hug kids every day who tell me they love me. The 3 year old classes I have are shiny and happy, and so darn cute. Even if they do wipe their noses on my sleeve.

So here are a few shots from our fall. Can't beleive October has already come and gone. Should get the Halloween shots on here by New Year's.
