Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

Back to School

We've started school! Emily was soooo excited. We were actually supposed to catch the bus, but didn't get there all the time (probably not the best way to start out the school year. :) ) Oh, well.

Meredith headed out the door. She was not happy when she found out she was getting left behind with Daddy. She's excited now though, because we walk Emily to her bus (which is a long walk because we have to go clear out to the highway.) and then we do our file folder games, and watch our Letter Factory movie and stuff like that. I try to use the time for just spending time on teaching Meredith.

She did NOT want to pose for me. She posed all of twice and decided she just wanted to go to school. Um, perhaps if I'd not taken pictures she would have made it to the bus on time. That's ok, the pictures were worth it still.
