HERE ARE A FEW SNAPS OF OUR LABOR DAY! 

WE ENDED UP TAKING A DAY TRIP- TO WATCH THE BIG FREIGHTERS!  WE ALSO PLAYED IN THE SAND AND TOURED THIS LIGHTHOUSE!

BRAD AND I WERE SITTING ON THE BEACH...WATCHING TOMMIE SWIM.  HE LOOKS OVER AT ME...(KNOWING WE WERE GOING TO START BACK TO SCHOOL THE FOLLOWING DAY) AND SAID TO ME...  "IN THE SPRING- WE USED TO LET OUR CALVES OUT IN THE FIELD TO RUN FREE ALL SUMMER...  THEN IN THE FALL WE HAD A HARD TIME SETTLING THEM DOWN TO COME IN...THEY RESISTED...  REMEMBER THAT TOMORROW WHEN YOU START BACK HOMESCHOOLING TOMMIE...  GO EASY ON HIM!"

OUR FIRST DAY BACK YESTERDAY WENT FINE.  LIGHT AND FINE.  EXHALE.

Oh, I love those words of advice to be gentle! Well said!!

I'm glad you had a good first day. Joseph and I are getting a slow start this year, but we are learning to maneuver through his Rosetta Stone Japanese program, so we are still working out the kinks here.

Everyone else is settled and seems happy!
