August Rush

School right around the corner once again.  It'll be a big this year with three out of the four kids at the top of thier school.  Devin will be entering his Senior year, Natalie is eighth grade and Savannah will be top of the elementary school as a fifth grader...  FUN STUFF.  Now if I could only master the art of slowing it all down a bit!  Can I be honest?  I feel like I just graduated from High School myself!  How is it possible to already have one of our children making plans to leave home?  Just doesn't seem possible!  I am learning to roll with all these firsts in life.   I'm not quite sure what this next school year will bring but I am confident it is bound to be very eventfull and exciting for us all.  We are all feeling the August Rush a little as we do every year.  So many last minute things to do before school starts.
