Memories....

                                              Flowers are in my daughter's back yard.

This morning brought back many memories.

It's the first day of school for some of my precious grandchildren.

Two others have already made this transition and are settling in.

All the kids were a little nervous and would have preferred slipping out the door to the back yard to play today.

The mood of the day made me think of all the years when my own two kids were growing up.  

The first day of school was always very special.

Kindergarten was the most difficult because the mother (me), couldn't stop crying. But she survived.

The years pass quickly and soon it's the first day of high school, then university classes!

In a flash, it's grandchildren climbing up the school bus steps. 

Life goes by so fast.  Enjoy each moment.  

Best of luck to all the brave little souls stepping into freshly decorated classrooms today and bless all the teachers, too.
