Something struck me today and I decided to resurrect my blog. I have missed blogging. I stopped almost 2 years ago and am not quite sure why. I believe it was because I found Facebook and started putting my oh-so-worthy news on there. I have missed blogging and the actual act of writing down my thoughts, experiences, etc. I admit I love reading others blogs. I do find myself often comparing mine to theirs and I have vowed to NOT do that anymore and just enjoy them for what they are and mine for what it is.
So today I woke early to see Meaghan get off to High School for her first day back. And by first day back - I mean - really first day back in a LONG time. Meaghan has been home schooled since she was in 3rd grade so this is her first time in the public school setting in a while.
While helping her do her hair (yes, I STILL help her do her hair!) I noticed (out the window - yes, creeper - I know!) the neighbors on their front porch. They were having their son pose with his back pack while they took lots of photos. I thought how cute that was and told Meg to get ready because I wanted to do the same thing in a few minutes!! They can never be too old for silly mom antics and photos next to the lovely tree in the front yard right? No they cannot and I know that because my neighbor's son is starting his Senior year of High School today!
Mom it is too sunny - I cannot open my eyes.
I cannot believe my mom is making me take these photos but at least I am not blinded by that sun anymore.
"Turn so I can see your back pack." Geez mom....
"Now, hold your backpack in your hands." Seriously mom????

Too fun!
How exciting! I hope that she has a great year!
how cute that the last blog post was of Meg's 13th birthday! It seems like just yesterday!! So excited and nervous for her! HUGS! I think you should blog more on your thought and feelings about her going to school. I know I'd love to hear your thoughts even though I may not need them for a few years ;)
Poor Meg, being traumatized on her first day of school, by her Momma. Good luck Meaghan, I hope to see you do flags at some point.
How sweet!! hope she is enjoying High School.
I think it's great that you took her first day of high school photo. I have first day of school pictures for both of my kids every year. For Jason, we even took a last day of high school photo. This year since he is going to community college, the first day of college picture, is a picture of him in the car getting ready to drive to college.
So glad you are back! I hope Meaghan enjoys high school! I
