Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. ~ Mark Twain~

1 I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry. 2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. 3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the LORD and put their trust in him.

I decided to put together a collage of Emily's 1st days of school from K-4 through now. :o) My how time flies- she looks soooooo much older all of the sudden! What happened?!?!

Emily's word for her first day back to school was "FUN", so that was good to hear. It was only half a day so what's to be expected in that amount of time! This is her first year to have a male teacher so we'll see how that goes. He told the class he doesn't think like a woman. :-) ha! ha! She seems to be really excited and can't wait for her first full day on Monday.

I will be brief and to the point... besides- this is basically like an online way to record his checkups and accomplishments that I have not written in his baby book! More for my benefit than anyone who might keep up with our blog! :) He is 36 inches tall (91.48 percentile) and 31 pounds (84.37 percentile) And- just for the record, our pediatrician told us to "IGNORE" temper tantrums!!! HA HA HA HA HA! I looked at him and said, "Do you have a 2 yr. old?" What do you think the answer was?? NO. I'd love to send Bryson home with him for a week and see what he says at the end of a week about that! okay- enough said.
