State fair

Can you tell I went back to school this week? Have you noticed the lack of blog entries?

I have been in my classroom a lot this last week and went back officially today. Please pray for the kids and pray for me as I figure out how to be a mom and a teacher again... it is tough to balance and I desperately needs God's grace and your prayers to do it!

David cracked me up tonight. I have been at school all day and I didn't really plan dinner so I asked David what he wanted for dinner. With a great big smile he said, "I want funnel cake mama!" He had some at the state fair and at Adventureland and I guess liked it!

The state fair...
Being a farmer and taking his food to market. Planting some seeds. Driving the tractor to plow the fields. Feeding the goats and llamas.
A little girl in the butterfly tent covered in butterflies!
Freaked out when a butterfly landed on him!
My WILD two year old boy TERRIFIED of the little butterfly!
My brave little girl!
Feeling braver...
Even braver...
Ready to try to touch a butterfly again... Not afraid anymore!

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I'm just sorry that we missed seeing you. Next time! Good luck getting back into the routine of working. It's not easy, I know. But you're doing it for the good of your family and there's nothing wrong with that. I'll be praying for you...I know the first few weeks of school can be challenging. Are you am or pm this year?
