Courtney Starts Kindergarten!

Yesterday was a difficult day for me. My stomach was tied in knots but Courtney seemed fine. I worried that she would be scared or overwhelmed. In the end, when we walked her to her class she seemed shy but excited. We gave her a hug and I was the one holding back tears. Later, we walked out to her bus stop to wait for her to come home. When I saw her coming off the bus safe and sound I almost started crying again. I'm sure it will get easier at least I hope so!

Clint's new shed!

Hooray for Clint! He is quite proud of his newly finished project. It is the result of so much hard labor I guess it is fitting that he finished it on Labor Day. It seemed like there were always things going on to keep him from it. I guess that is just life. It has been a pretty big undertaking for us and the kids thought it was super fun to play in and on it during the many stages. I am sure Clint would have had an easier time also if he'd had a more capable helper than me. I probably made things more difficult because sadly I am so weak! Anyway here are some pictures of the various stages.
