Yes, it is that time of year, the weather gets colder, the leaves start falling off the trees, and the kids head back to school.....Wait! I live in California, it is hotter than blazes, and the leaves, trees and grass are dying due to drought, but, the kids did head back to school this week.
Gabe headed off to middle school. As a returning student, he was ready for the upcoming changes. The other two boys in his carpool were new to the school. He is doing a great job of being the go-to guy for them. He was surprised on the first day of school to be put into concert band. He had requested a science elective for the year, but was not placed in that class. Even though concert band was his second choice, he is excited to be playing a new instrument, the bass clarinet. It looks like a cross between a clarinet and a saxophone and is very large! He loves playing it.
Allie has started highschool. Due to band camp, she went to school with confidence that she would have friends and know her way around. She has six classes. It should be a challenging year for her, but I think that she is up to the task. She started seminary on Tuesday. We haven't made it on time yet, but are still hopeful that we will perfect that task soon.
Yeah, life will return to a normal schedule and routine....Wait! I still have two college students that are not in any sort of routine for 2 more weeks......Maybe my routine is just chaos.
