Labor Day Get Together

We enjoyed a great day of family togetherness at Kate's on Saturday, September 5. Like most family gatherings, we ate, chatted, played games, and laughed. Go here, Because It's Fun, to see the pictures since like most of our family gatherings, I didn't take any (too busy enjoying the day).

We are looking forward to a quiet Monday tomorrow, followed by school on Tuesday. I always have mixed feelings about the first day of school. Sad that the kids will be gone all day and we've hit another indicator that they are growing up too fast. Yet, also happy, because now maybe I'll be able to stay caught up on the laundry. And every year, I feel nervous for my kids. I hope they have a good teacher, find good friends, and are happy. Please just be happy. So far, every year has gone fine, so why do I worry that this year might be the exception? Just a Negative Nellie, I guess. It's what I do: worry about my kids because I love them so much.
