Pondering thoughts......

As a new School year approaches, I am so excited for D1 as she enters Kindergarten and all the doors that will open for her. She is growing up so fast and it makes me wonder.......have I been a good parent and role model for her? She goes into this stage of her life and takes with her the teachings we have taught her thus far......will she be respectful, will she be kind to others, will she be.....
As I know she is only 5 years old and it may sound a bit melodramatic, I do believe these are the years where our teaching's are most preserved and will be carried thru life, which brings me back to my question.....have I been a good parent and role model? I wonder........

On another note.....DH is back full swing coaching football. I LOVE to see him doing something he truly enjoys with such passion. I only wish this could be a career for him as I know he would be excellent at it but I support him either way. I will be the cheerleading section for him.....GO GAITHER COWBOYS!

D2 will be continuing Tap and Ballet class as well as Gymnastics for the rest of the year. DS will be joining the Gym arena this Fall as well. I do believe he could teach the class to the other 1 & 2 year olds with all the energy and enthusiasm he displays every day!

All of my children are a true blessing and such a joy to be with every moment. My dream of becoming a mom has come true and I only hope I can bless them with as much love and joy as they have given me......

Embrace life and all it has to offer.... don't let the craziness, stress, hustle and bustle over ride what is truly important in our lives..

Well..I put a comment out here yesterday, but not sure what happened to it. Know to remember....I too agree it's hard to believe that C is starting school. Time is flying by for sure. You both continue to do a super job with all the kids. I think that being a parent is the toughest job you can have and the only thing we can do is our best. And I can tell you that the reward is seeing how good a parent your kids are and I'm sure you will realize that one of these days...all too soon! LY both and just "keep on keeping on"! M

C&G, You both are doing a wonderful job as parents and role models. As a Grandparent I admit to being prejudice, but I'm that way about all my kids and grandkids.

It's hard, yet difficult being a parent in that you don't always see immediate results from the examples you set, but believe me when you see your kids looking, acting and even saying the same things you said when they were young, it's a proud moment for a parent.

Love you all,
Dad

Well....you know it makes me feel OLD as she should still be a little one. And yes, you are doing a great job with them. Hug her lots. Enjoy each and every moment. And know that we are loving watching them grow.
