Silence is Golden...

The boys are off to school and Marra and I have a couple of hours of quiet.  Marra loves her babies and is enjoying playing mommy with out any of the brothers "helping".   I think I can get use to this. 

Cameron is all ready for 2nd grade.  He is even more excited to take the bus everyday.  I am more than happy to let him.  I got a little tired of driving everyday.  Marra and Peyton are thrilled to not be in the car.  Cam is also happy about the fact that he can buy baseball cards in the cafeteria.  Yes, the school has a vending machine for our sport lovers.

Nate allowed me to take his picture as long as I did it where no one could see.   This was taken in the corner of the yard.  (I did however walk him to the bus stop I am sure he will never live that one down).  He is in the 8th grade and is loving the locker thing.  California did not have lockers so he had to carry his backpack and all it's contents around during school.  

The boys are ready to bug someone else for a change.  I sure hope the teachers are ready.

Mason is in the 5th grade at a new school.  He has already made a couple of new friends.  He is a great big brother and makes sure that Cameron gets off on the right stop.  He even knows the garage code so I do not have to be home to let them in.  I doubt he will ever have to use it, but he is sure hoping.

The happiest of all has to be our Peyters.  He walk right into class and started to work.  "See ya mom" is all I got.  I held it together until the car and cried all the way home.  I am thrilled to know that his body  and mind are working well enough for "regular" kindergarten.  It has been an up hill battle that he has had to climb by himself with the rest of us cheering him on, and he has done it all with a smile.  What a kid!
