School started today!!
Got a pic of Meri in front of the withering the black/blue eyed Susans. She wasn't too thrilled to go to school today but I held firm that she was NOT going to be homeschooled this year!
We've got a wonderful school district with really good teachers. There's no reason to yet.
Just because your friends haven't talked to you much over the summer, doesn't mean they hate you... It just means they were probably grounded from their cell phones for most of it or on vacation. She saw a lot of them at the fair and other activities over the summer...
Meri is being mocked that SHE has to go to school today and Maddy doesn't have to. Maddy wanted to walk Meri into her classroom as if she was a kindergartner. There was a definite NO.
Guess what I did last Saturday night?
Duct taped up Maddy while watching While You Were Sleepless In Seattle! My husband is a kidder... It was actually the last part of that title... She was a little ticked Bill Pullman got the boot! She likes him from the first part of the title.
Got a bust made and tried one of her shirts on it. It fits!!!
I don't need her anymore. She can go to college now. WAAAAAHHH!!
Although I can check up on her at school any time I want! I found the various campus webcams. My cousin thinks I should let her party in peace, but this isn't exactly a party school. A neighbor thinks I'm naive, because in his mind EVERY college is a party school... This college is training you to either be a minister or a Christian teacher. She's going to make an excellent teacher!
Meri's lookalike will be next!

Happy 1st day of school! :)
It's Son#1's first day too. He didn't get together with any of his classmates this summer. When you're a family of introverts, that's just how it is.
How difficult was that duct tape bodice? I've been contemplating making one.
Happy Wednesday! :)
Ahhh the junior high drama begins. Wish her well from me.
And soon you will be down to just one kid in the house. We are on count down until we have none and no one is counting louder than DJ!
Poor Meri, this is such a hard age to go through, then add middle school drama on top.....
As for the college let me just tell you about my own:
Parents sent me to an all girl catholic college and thought the same thing as you about it; safe, no parties, will be a great christian woman afterwards. Well, put a group of women who have been sheltered all their life and the dorm became one HUGE party! Oh there were nuns who lived in the dorms. What the college forgot to tell my parents-the nuns were afraid of us ;o)
