Proud Mommy moments

So I hit the floor running when I got back from Missouri, and haven't slowed down since. Summer was in full swing and I had to jump in! Had a WONDERFUL time catching up with cousins, laughing until my sides hurt (they know why:)) and getting NO sleep at all. It was super fun. Enjoyed meeting Doug and his boys, and the wedding was perfect! Best wishes to them!

BUT, let me catch up on what happened before I left! School came to a close, and the boys all had a great year. Jared got his academic medal...for his almost 4.0 all year long....

This kid works his BEHIND off for the grades he gets, and we couldn't be more proud of him!

Then, my little 2nd grader got his recognition. They had a small awards ceremony for just their class, which was fun. Their teacher gave them individual awards that matched a certain candy bar...Justin got a Cow Tail...SUPRISE! He and his teacher talked horses and stuff all year long. He will certainly miss having that connection with her. I bet I will find him in her room alot next year, chatting about horses.

And last but not least.....our BABY graduated from Preschool. AAAAAHHHHH!! Where did the time go? He is headed to Kindergarten already. Can't believe it. He had a great year with his wonderful teacher, and I will miss working with her and visiting with her everyday!

What a big boy. Oh, how life travels TOOO fast. My babies are moving up the ladder of life way to fast for me, but I am trying to savor each moment while I can. All I can hope for is that I have trained them well to survive in this crazy world and that they treat everyone they come in contact with with respect and love. But most of all, I hope I have instilled in them that God loves them more than anything, and that he will never fail them. Good job boys!
