and so the summer begins…

the kids are done with another year of school. kira is onto the 5th grade, cam onto the 2nd, and caleb onto his last year of preschool. i decided to stop working after a year of trying it out, and stay at home a little bit longer… to try and savor this last year before all my children are in school 5 days a week… that’s a lot of alone time… the most i’ve had in about 10 years. 🙂 i’ll miss them.
we have quite an adventure planned this summer. chris and i will be going to australia for 2.5 weeks. without the kids. which is why we finally entered the blog world. a way for our kids and others to see what we’ve seen. to stay in touch. because it is oh so far away. and it will be the longest we’ve been apart.
