And This Is What Riley Does...

While the other two are away at school, making friends, educating their little minds, this CHILD runs "amok" around the house, threatening to destroy anything. And this was AFTER she left the kitchen floor as a new Great Lake. Apparently, she just stood at the automatic water dispenser and held the lever down. That is why she is shirtless in the picture. She had soaked her pretty little dress. And can you believe that we had already put AWAY all markers. Somehow she always find that one, lonely little marker that someone left out.

Ryan Is Off To Preschool....

Now it was my son's turn for school. He started preschool this morning and was very excited! Doesn't he look so handsome? Riley was really excited to get into his pictures too. I didn't have quite all the emotions that I had with Reagan a few weeks ago, but still it was an occasion for all of us. He will be in school from 9:00am to 11:30am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am sure Riley will miss her big brother, but that she will also enjoy spending some special one on one time with Mommy.

Can I just tell you how sweet my son is?!?!?! The other night we were lying in bed reading stories and he says to me......

"Mom, I know what hearts are for."

"Oh really. What are they for?" I asked.

"They are for loving, " he replies.

"For loving what?" I ask.

"God. Oh, and Mommy and Daddy" he answers.

Yes, of course, I just hugged him and kissed him, my sweet, innocent, loving boy.
