Tilly starts school


Tilly has her first day of Kindergarten today. She is so excited, except for the fact that she has to wait until afternoon to go. She has been asking all morning when she gets to leave. (Cricket also started third grade on Tuesday! She is very excited and looking forward to this new year too. Although she did try to convince me on the second day that she was sick. Here we go again.)
Tilly is so funny. Her prayers have been particularly lengthy lately. She always remembers people she loves and is thinking about. This is end of her dinner prayer the other night and I just had to share it with everyone:
"Bless JP and Shelly that they will have love so that their hearts will keep beeping and they will be able to live. And bless Uncle Ryan up there with Grandma Sue that they can have a good time and talk nice to each other."

It is so exciting to go to school, those children are growing up too fast though, Jen, can't ya tell them to slow down just a bit? Does Dewy love having you all to himself for the afternoon? It was so good to see you all at Katy's. Wish it could happen more often.

Dang, spelled Katie's name wrong, don't take offense Kate, it takes me a while... but I knew this one. Sorry Katie.

She is sooo grown up. Bitter sweet it is. I'm glad she is praying for Mom and Ryan to talk nice to eachother cause I can only imagine what she said to him for being reckless on that dirt bike.

I absolutely LOVE "so their hearts will keep beeping"--hilarious!
