Today was the first day of school for Jacob and Benjamin. Jacob is in 6th grade and Benji is in 4th (boo hoo)! I don't remember telling them they could grow up so fast. I'm actually joining the boys at school this year. I'm going to be working there as a teacher's aid 2 1/2 days a week. Surprisingly enough, the boys are very excited about it. I asked Jacob before I accepted the job whether or not he cared if his mom worked at the school. He response, "Why would I care?" To which I said, "Because I'll be at your school during the day, working with some of your classmates and everyone knows I'm your mom." Jacobs response, "So...I think it's cool, now I can see you whenever I want." Alrighty then! Had my mom asked me the same question at his age my response would have been a resounding, "H%*L NO!!" I guess Jacob is just a nicer person than me. Benjamin is excited as well, but that didn't surprise me in the least.
Anyway, summer is over (well, at least the break is)! It's back to a routine and a schedule...GROSS!
The picture above isn't very good because I took it off my cell phone. I'm back to not having a camera. Sorry about the Olympic theme song....I'll change it later!

I love that your boys want to have you around them! You must be one AWESOME mom!
wow, their little gentleman now! I feel like I've watched them grow up! It's been two+ years now! ;)
Your boy's comments must have felt so good! It's awesome you have such a close relationship!
OMG! I can't believe I didn't see this post! Too funny!! So cool that our boys love us so. We must be pretty cool. ;)
So are you enjoying being at school with them? I'm praying that my Jake doesn't decide it's bad to have me at school once I start.
