and we're OFF!






Yesterday at the beach was fun. We got there just after 9 and began building the largest castle-cake that I ever attempted. 2 hours later is was 3 feet tall and not wanting to have much of a second layer. Fiona jumped on it in the afternoon to make it mush.
She hung out with friends and we played frisbee and splashed about. A nice way to end the summer. Bath to wash off the sand and bed by 7:45 was a good plan. I caught her up at 8:30 sorting dixie cups in the bathroom, looking for all the ones with penguins on them. JUST a little excited about school!
Fiona's convinced that day one of school = fall.
and today is that day. She was up at 6 ish and snuggling with us by 6:30. Ready for the bus 45 minutes ahead of schedule too.
New backpack, lunchbag and all ready. She wanted to wear her Anne hat to show her SK teacher.
Bright-Eyed and bushy tailed she's on the bus and now ... to the long list of to-do's for me.
Moppet pr mostly as th programs only kick in next week (2) and then one additional one for the following 2 weeks until I'm up to 4 mornings a week. Hope to get a routing down before too long to get all I need to done, and then tackle the want-to list.
happy september all!
