Back-to-School 2012!

Well... hello! It's been almost a year since my last post. And I'm shaking my head. So often I tell myself, "I have to blog about that!" But then the days and nights escape me (and they still do). Time hasn't slowed down at all - we just preoccupy ourselves with different things. There is so much I missed sharing here, but I'm sure those stories and photos will make their way here eventually.

At the start of school last year, we began a huge home remodel (we're still at it - more on that later). Still - there are two things that have certainly changed. A lot. The kids.

In fact, Noah started Kindergarten... and after his first week, he declared, "school is soo long."

Yes, dear Noah. It is. Way too long. 

Their new homeschool room is near completion... and I say "near" because there were several months in between "life" where there wasn't any construction going on. Right now, we're focusing on building a routine and meeting new friends. And pausing just enough to remind ourselves - how quickly - all of it moves. 

Here's to a new year! I'm looking forward to reconnecting with you :)
