Words To Live By

"Dear Heavenly Father..... thank you for everything that happens, except the naughty stuff... even the naughty stuff, 'cuz that helps us learn"

----- Jacob Barnhart, age 6

1st Grade

"I can't believe I'm 6 years old!" This is what my son tells me at the end of his first week of 1st grade. If he could only imagine how strange it is for me as well that my 1st born is in 1st grade... riding the bus to and from school, lunch with his friends, not getting home until 4:00! He loves school and tells me that his teacher, Mrs. Beckley, gets prettier everyday. I hope we can continue to foster this love of education! Maybe when he is 16 I will make him read my blog and remember how much he loved school at 6!
