Hi Dede,
My TWO girls keep me so busy. The youngest one is five and the just started full day kindergarten. She loves it so much!
She rides the school bus with her big sister who is eleven and already in the fifth grade. My older girl just got accepted to participate in the Media room. It is where fifth grade children who have good speaking abilities are videotaped for mock news segments which are then viewed by all the students. Every classroom has a TV where their News and other announcements by the principal can be seen.
I almost got emotional this year thinking that my babies were both in school and I would be all alone. But not for long... now I'm anxiously waiting the arrival of my third baby girl early next year. Children grow so fast. Every day I'm grateful for them. And you know, Dede the best thing is that they will be healthier and happier now because we, as their mothers have given them a chance to be their best without the confines of a "weird religion" as my little one would say.
YoursChelbie
