We have just a handful of days left until the start of school, so today I decided we really had better get up earlier. I was up, and so was Agnes. I think that little gal would be up twenty-four hours a day if I would let her.

Today we are practicing our new school route, and running a few errands while we are out too. This year there will be a little change in the school hours. The boys will be going to school until around 3:30 p.m., Dylan’s school is beginning their school day first, and Thade and Agnes’ school days both begin at the exact same time. We have to switch things up a bit.

I still need to get the kids names of their school supplies, lunch-boxes, and backpacks. We have the boy’s open houses tomorrow night, and I’m really looking forward to meeting their teachers.

Agnes won’t be starting preschool until after Labor Day, but she is getting really excited about it. She is already picking out her outfit and shoes for the big day.

Now, time for some hot coffee, and hopefully I can stay awake. I think I’m the most difficult one when it comes to early mornings.
