School In Session

We officially have a second grader and kindergartner. Watch out Fowler Elementary! Cole is doing incredible in his class and his teacher thinks he is the sweetest boy ever. Brad is adapting very very well. His teacher is full of love for him and we are already working together to make this a great year. The first thing he asked me on the first day of school "how come they don't pray?" Bless his sweet heart.

We are trying to get into full swing with routines. Keith is coaching Cole's soccer team. He's playing up two years to U-10. I can hardly watch as the kids are so much .... older than he is! But he's doing great. He's also been able to practice with The Texans down in Dallas. He's been invited to guest play a few of their games and he will be on the rosters for tournaments. Between the two I'm hoping he's challenged and still having fun. I worry about burnout, but the kid eats and breathes soccer.

Brad had his first practice last night. He did the same thing as the last two seasons, but I'm positive he will be ready for Wednesday! Keith said he has the best touch on the team. I just wish he had the confidence he needs. It's odd to have one so doubtful and the other so.... boastful! Those are my boys! Side note: Yesterday he woke up and asked me "mom, can I be a circus guy AND a prairie dog keeper?" Absolutely! Brad keeps me constantly entertained with his creative comments and imagination. I can't wait till he can start writing so I can keep his journals!

Keith is busy working. We are still waiting to hear about the AF paperwork and a FedEx start date. I'm sure it will all work out, but it's just another thing dangling in the distance of unknown!

The move went well. It was WORK and I highly advise taking advantage of every Air Force paid move you can! There's a few things I need to do to make it "home", but it's coming together.

There is so much to do, but I'm off to take advantage of this hot weather, our pool, and a little me time. I miss my boys, but what good will come of it moping inside when it can be done outside on a pool float as well ;-)
