An Education

Moving in early summer has its advantages: family time, freedom from schedules, family time, an entire summer to think about all the things you miss about the place you used to live... it's been a long summer. Real long. But my son is now at the top of the elementary school in 5th grade. My daughter is a 7th grader at the MIddle school, and My two oldest (at home) are attending the high school together. The toddler is officially toddlering at preschool whilst our oldest is now in his second year at UVU in Orem.  The family vacillates between missing our college student and wishing he was here to being crazy jealous of his Utah resident status and wanting to live with him in his dorm. Even though school just started, let it be known that our move to Pullman has already been an education. We're learning to trust in each other and God a little more, and learning to take life a day at a time.

Q: Who makes their child entering the junior year in high school move to a new small town?

A: Mean parents.

So... how are you doing, Simon, with the move and all?

Oh, I'm good... and he is.

Her name is Ginger. She's a goldendoodle, and just seeing her fluffiness brings me joy.
