"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

The Last Day of Kindergarten!

Wow!! I can't believe how quickly this school year flew by! With the teacher's strike at the begining of the year, we thought it would never start and now it is over! Cooper and I went to school with Chloe on the last day- they had a party and did a few other fun activities! I can't believe Chloe is now a 'first grader!'

Cooper eating donuts and fruit with Chloe. He thought he was hot stuff sitting at her table with her and the kids!



Chloe at the easel, circling 'words inside of words' in Miss Lowy's last morning note of the year!

The entire class!

Chloe and her BFF's!

How is she this old already?!


And with Miss Lowy, the best kindergarten teacher ever!
