Back to School 09'

This year everyone started a new school (with the exception of Heidi's preschool). The elementary school the kids used to go to got closed down (due to budget cuts....now this baffles me because we pay over 7K in property taxes on one house alone...????) So the girls started a new elementary school, ironically closer than their old one. The are in classes with their old classmates and they have a "cool playground" so they are content.
Reed started Jr. High. We are in a panic... now his grades actually will have some impact on his future. We are trying to figure out the whole Jr High thing blindly. He is loving it because his crush he had in 1st grade is now in his school. And he doesn't seem to have any problem attracting "the ladies". He has 8th grade girls randomly coming up to him asking him for hugs and furling his hair.......... Oh Hell! Let the parenting fun begin!

A couple of your girls look JUST the way I remember you looking when you were little. I suppose it's not a big surprise to you since they're yours... but still!

Good luck fending off the girl hoards. Loathe that part of parenthood! Stinkin' hoochies!
