August 23rd brought a screeching halt to summer as the kids loaded up their back packs donned their uniforms (the boys) and headed back to school. There are big changes this year as Jake heads to first grade and goes to school all day for the first time... Connor begins Kindergarten...and Paigey attends Junior Kindergarten going 5 mornings a week!
Connor, in front of the desperately in need of bush trimming, sign for Oakland Christian School.
(they're saving it for a Servathon project!)
Plan B
Paigey making friends...
Connor at his table...
Jake being, oh so cool, at his desk...
Another big change this year is the addition of a job for Mommy! I was asked to take on a part time job at the school to be an Assistant to the Events & Development Coordinator. I wasn't looking for a job and as a result took nearly a month to seek God for whether or not to take it. But, in the end we just felt it was the right thing to do.
The job is perfect for me! I LOVE it!! My first big project is assisting with our all school Servathon! It's been an answer to prayers I've been praying for the last year. Prayers that had nothing to do with getting a job, but everything to do with opening my heart and it has opened up doors for and answered things in my heart I never realized were part of God's plan. It's truly been amazing and I feel blessed to be a part of this school and thankful for God's provision for us to send our kids here.
