First day of School 1.0

Today was Henry's first day of his junior year in high school...5th school in 5 years...8th school since kindergarten! To say he's adaptable and resilient and is an understatement. That kid is just plain amazing!

The boys actually thought that I wouldn't care if Maxwell drove Henry to school today. Clearly, they haven't met me.
I've taken him to his first day of school every year since he was five. 
I wasn't about to miss this one and I had no shame sitting in the back seat! 
Maxwell was sad to see his buddy go...
Go do great things, my boy!
 I can't wait to see where this journey at Collegiate leads you!

Florida Farewell

Image
Our last sunset in Florida didn't disappoint.  Honestly, it wasn't an emotional farewell though.  I always felt like our time in Florida was fleeting. As a family, we transitioned the kids in and out of the house over summers, and in and out again. In two short years we transitioned through different schools and jobs and friends. These last two years especially, I felt like a transient. Never quite settled.  Now, it's time to settle. I'd like to plant some roots, even if they aren't deep and forever at our next assignment. Like us, they just need to be strong for the season.  Eglin AFB, Florida  1 June 2023

Knoxville TN

AmeriCorps and the real world called.   The day after we got back home from Colorado, Maxwell was off. It should've been two days after we got home, but we missed our original flight and...anyhow.  On that Tuesday morning, Matt and Henry went to work, and Maxwell, Viv and I loaded up the U-Haul and headed to Knoxville. Viv was so excited to be a part of this moving crew...she was always in school when he left for Lyco so this was her first official move-in. There was a lot of driving, a lot of sweat, and (as always) some tears, but the three of us got it done!  Go answer that call, Moose. Go out and do great things!! Tennessee River Line Project  Day 1!
