Although Fall is truly my favorite season, I also hate to see summer go - mostly because I'm a baby when it comes to cold weather. I promised myself that I wouldn't start decorating for, or posting about, Fall until October 1st and now the time is finally here! The Aspen trees around our neighborhood are brilliant. If you're in Colorado, you have to get up to see the leaves soon.
I know I've been MIA these last two weeks. We've had so much going on as a family. We took our older son out of 1st grade at his new school and moved him back to Kindergarten at his old school. It was truly the hardest thing I've had to do as a parent, but it's working out beautifully. He's feeling confident where he used to feel intimidated, happy where he used to hate school. Last year he rarely finished the assignments he was given in school and this year he's finishing on time, able to sit through the day without going nuts, and no longer feels anxious.
We received some news about M&F's birth family in Ethiopia last week that was shocking to say the least and left me feeling a little too "blah" to do much blogging. On the plus side, we also found out that they have an extended family member who is living here in the States. Incredible. (In a good way.)
Additionally, momma got some much-needed time away with a girls weekend in NYC! Just what I needed.
Now that things have calmed down here (not that our life is ever calm) I hope to be back to blogging more regularly. I just pulled out all of my Fall and Halloween decorations and am in the process of making some more. Hope to have lots of photos for you soon!
