Outside my Window...blue skies, not a cloud in sight, my sheets drying on the clothesline.
I am thinking...that dropping off Nicholas at kindergarten this morning was just as hard as I thought it would be
I am thankful for...the fact that he was such a strong little boy, he didn't cry or cling at all, he just jumped right into it. :)
From the kitchen...Ham and Cheese Casserole and for dessert the leftover Tres Leches Cake from my birthday yesterday
I am creating...Fabric purses with some fun summer fabric I have laying around
I am going... to clean this house from top to bottom, with both kids in school I'm sure I can get a lot done
I am wearing...shorts and a pink striped top, black flip flops
I am reading...Wow, well, nothing right now, I've read a bunch of books this past week. I finished the "Firstborn" series by Karen Kingsbury which I loved, then I read "The spell of the highlander" by Karen Marie Moning, absolutely loved it too and I also read "One Tuesday Morning" it was so sad and I cried most of the book. Next on my list to read is "Bright Captivity" by Eugenia Price, it's the first book in the Georgia Trilogy.
I am hoping...That my kids have a good first day at school.
I am hearing... absolutely nothing, the silence is actually deafening for me since it's the first time in 9 years that I've had the house to myself.
Around the house...the dishwasher is running, the washer is running too, I have floors that are about to be mopped and bed linens to change
One of my favorite things...kisses from my children first thing in the morning
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... Library on thursday, Grocery shopping on Friday. The rest of the week I'll be busy reorganizing the kids bedrooms and purging what is not needed anymore. It's easier done when they're out of the house because everything tends to turn into their favorite once I try to get rid of it LOL
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...First day of school, fourth grade and kindergarten

what a monumental day for you. both kids off to school. i'm sure the silence is deafening, and probably a little hard to get used to. enjoy your alone time. imho, it makes you a better mother when the kids are around.
I'm sure they're having a great time but I'm also sure they can't wait to get a hug from mom when they get home too!
Have a great day and a wonderful week, Sandra!

He's off to first grade in a few weeks and now, I can't wait...lol
((((HUGS))) and I hope both of your babies had a GREAT day!
Sheets dried on the line, one of my favorite smells from childhood.
Nicolas looks adorable and a little apprehensive... I saw that look on a couple of my kids' faces on the first day of Kindergarten. I hope they both had wonderful first days!! =)
