Planning

So far so good....  This weekend we will be celebrating Hermione's birthday.  She is turning six years old.  As a mom, I am probably suppose to say things like it goes by so fast or it makes me feel so old.  Well all those things are fairly true but I a will not say them- nope, not gonna do it!  Ha!

 

Any way, so the house will need to be clean up a little and we already went shopping for presents.  The trick will be to keep her little sister from telling her everything before Saturday afternoon.  Also it is Aumsville's Corn Festival this Saturday so that includes a parade, free corn, and all the festivities.  We will have our own corny time after the parade.  People are invited to drop by the house around 3 to wish Hermione a Happy Birthday.  We will have ice cream cake and cupcakes available.  It should be fun! 

Hermione went to spend the night at Grandma's last night.  I think they went shopping and saw a movie.  Will hear the details soon.  But the most important thing, of course, is getting our back to school supplies ready.  This is what will make the mom in me weepy and sappy- she is starting 1st grade in 11 days.  She will be gone at school- ALL DAY.  Praying that God will give me the strength.  I also pray that I may one day be privileged to keep her home to teach her, but that is not up to me.  It will be an exciting and possibly stressful year, but I am excited to see her growing and learning.
