I think right now in my life the most amazing sound I could hear in the morning is the sound of the school bus coming to pick the kids up for school! MO had a family tree project to do during Christmas break and of course it is bedtime and he is still working on it! We have had tears and arguements over this project today. However we did learn interesting things like Grandad Lambert (from my side of the family) and Grandpa Dean (from hubby's side of the family) both worked for the city of San Diego at the same time. I never would have even thought that the families may have known each other in the past since my family is from the east coast and James is from midwest and west coast! We called my dad after finding the information about Grandad being a San Diego Police Department Taxi Driver and he confirmed the time frame of that. Grandpa Dean was working for the city of San Diego at the same time! MO wants to think that his great-grandfather's might have known each other. I think that is pretty cool!
Of course, today has been a struggle with all the kids for different reasons. I just think that it is too long of a break and that our routines have been shot. It is so time to get back in the routine of school right now. JO, of course, was well underway of getting ready for bed as MO was working on his project. In addition to posting pics here -- which I promise will be of Hawaii as soon as our routine can get to be normal again! -- I am trying to take at least one picture of each child all year long. I will start putting these into albums for them to have at the end of the year. I just think this is a neat thing to do. I walked in the bathroom and said, "what are you doing?" JO said, "what" back at me as she leaned her head back and I got this cute picture of her.
Well this is goodnight from us for tonight and hopefully I can get out and about tomorrow to snap some photos of the area where I live!
