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.

First Day of School 2012

My Kindergartner.
On our way to school.
First Grade (I have no idea how this happened. I think I blinked.)
Very excited.
Rebecca was not to be left out of the photo taking. 

When Meredith got in the car after school I asked her how it was and was she good. She said yes. I know her, I pressed. Did you get in trouble today? "No" Did the teacher get mad at you? ....hesitation. Me: Meredith, did the teacher get mad at you? Meredith: Yes. Me: What did you do? Meredith: shrug After continually pressing I finally got out of her that she didn't sit on the rug when the teacher asked her, and that she got moved to the front desk right by teacher on the first day of school. Haha. I KNEW it. However, I've been asking her about school every day, and it sounds like she's getting used to all the rules. Whew!
