September

How the heck did we get to September?

 

Unreal September I guess we have been so busy living the year has flown by if I think too hard about it makes me sad.

This month is the start of our last child in school and our last child in minor hockey. I can honestly  say I am a little excited about that. We have had so many years of hockey juggling the time trying to figure out how to pay for it worrying about the gas every weekend.

Yup I am so over it.

 It has been great for the kids awesome memories, a love of a sport, made great friends, learned respect, team work, kept them on the right side, made them all good people. 

 

And, school

 

The driving to the bus twice a day, always watching the clock, home work, fitting in at school. The making sure we have enough lunch snacks for six kids and my husband every night. Feeling bad because we could not buy the lunch program all the time. The tracks meets making sure we have encouraged just enough and not push them and to have fun. Wondering how we will buy lunch at the track meet so the kids can have some treats.

The new school clothes usually the only time they got new clothes so it was exciting for them.

Running shoes ~ always had to have running shoes.

There is more so much more

 

We did it, they did it, my Mom and Dad did it, the kids had good school years.

They succeeded , made it through and achieved.

So the last one on his way to reach his goal of the dogwood diploma.

Here is to a good school year and a fun hockey season.
