In the mind of a 5 year old....

We have the best conversations in the car.  Miranda asks a question and off we go.  Sunday we discussed the heart and its function in the body, the difference between a microscope and a telescope, all the planets in the Solar System (which we had to practice naming in order, of course), and the miracle of how God could create all this.  Miranda's final assessment as she was walking into church was that God could probably even create a pink car if he wanted to.  She's such a girl.

Of course the only thing she remembers from any of these conversations is the one with Dad about how many people currently live on the Space Station.  Lesson learned--if it is something she really needs to know, have Dad tell her. 

First week of school

We finished the first week of school!  Miranda has already reconnected with old friend and made new friends.  Gabriel is a bit more slow to make friends but my fears of major meltdowns on the first day of school were unfounded.

I am thrilled to say that all my classes have been fabulous.  I am so blessed to work at a school with such wonderful students.

New Beginnings

I am excited to begin blogging about my family and life.  What a great way to share happings in this crazy, too busy world.
