Rodney went first and then when he was done Emily got up and ran over and said my turn. It surprised me because when Matt gave her one a couple of weeks ago, to get her teeth worked on, she would only do it if I held her. I peeked in the middle of her blessing to see if she was sitting still and she was folding her arms, eyes closed and sitting so still. I started to cry (well bawl). My baby was growing up. Then my pregnant brain started to think about the day that my Dr had told me I would probably never get to have my own children and how my little baby I just had (Karlee) was going to be in first grade and gone all day and I was going to miss her so bad. Poor Rodney even said, "I won't go to preschool and leave you I will miss you too bad." It made me feel good but I know it will be good for him.
I know I say this a lot but I am in so much love with my kiddos. They make me so happy. They are so funny and sweet and yes sometimes they are terds, we all are. But I am so grateful for a loving Father in Heaven who gave me the blessing of being there mom. It is truly my honor. I hope and pray everyday that they will always know how much I love and adore them.
So our new adventure begins. Karlee will be gone until 2:35 and Rodney (in 2 wks) will be gone 3 days a wk for 2 1/2 hrs. I love to hear all the fun things they do and see them grow, I just wish they would slow down growing up so fast!
Karlees first day in 1rst Grade
She wanted to know if her teeth were sparkly white. hahaha
Good Luck Karlee you are going to love school!

They grow up WAY to fast. I remember when you brought her home from the hospital. We both lived in Logan at the time. WOW! My girls started Kindergarten yesterday! CRAZY!
Steph-
We did want them in the same class this year and then we are separating them next year. We just weren't sure how they would do going everyday without each other. To answer your question!
Yay for Karlee! I hope your first day of first grade was first rate! Meaning I hope it was wonderful. Did you have hot lunch? Cold lunch? How was recess? Cute boys in your class? I think you should call me later. Love you love you love you!

She had a great day thank you. We met her for lunch and she sat way down from us and I said come sit by your family and she said well I gotta leave room for my friends. hahaha
She had hot lunch, made 2 new friends, and the only boys she has eyes for are her daddy and Jason. :)
I'm glad that Karlee had such a wonderful time at school and that she looks so cute!
