Off to school

Today was Ben's first day of school. Bittersweet. Even though we were sad when Jack left for kindergarten, we had 5 years with him in preparation for that moment. Only having one year with Ben definitely made us realize how short our time has been with him. It's hard to remember what life was like before them. :)

Jack's first day was last Tuesday. I'm so thankful for his excitement and passion to go to school every day. He absolutely loves it. :)

Lazy Saturday

We had a whole lot of nothing to do today, so this is what we came up with.

It's all fun and games until the competition gets the best of everyone. ;)

"The more we know of God, the more we realize that when He permits us to pass through deep and dark waters, it is not because He is powerless to deliver us, but because a beneficent and eternal purpose is being worked out in that process. And what is more, we discover that God is not interested merely in working out His purposes in us, but in imparting to us a richer sense of His presence." -Selwyn Hughes

"You have made me rejoice in this, LORD, by what You have done." Psalm 92:4

I love this.

A few pictures from lessons today...

The littles playing rock, paper, scissors while they wait for Jack to finish his lesson.

My sweet swimmer.

Does it get any cuter than this?

This is Eli's class. He's supposed to be right in between these two. And he is. He's just sitting on the bottom of the pool. I noticed today they had an extra lifeguard in the pool today right behind Eli's class. Coincidence?

Ben swimming on his back. Great swimmer, but sinks like a rock when he tries to float. I'm sure he'll get it by the end of the week.
