Monday, Monday...

Before I kick off another busy summer work week, I thought I'd stop and rattle off a couple of cute Parkerisms. Although my sweet little boy has left nearly all traces of baby behind, and has picked up a few fun terrible-two-tactics, he is still the sweetest and smartest little button I could imagine.

This past week Parker started telling me "Mommy, you're just so precious" and "You're just the most precious thing to me." I've been waiting my whole life to hear those words. :) Yesterday, he said "Do you remember yesterday when I was singing with my Buzz Lightyear and you were screaming and telling me that I can't sing because its against the rules?" (This did NOT happen! Since when do I scream?) I responded: "Parker, I don't remember that happening. Are you telling the truth, or are you telling Mommy a story?" He said, smiling: "Mom, I was just decorating the truth." Oh boy!

Our kids at the Academy come back to school next week, which is astonishing to me. This has been the shortest summer ever to exist, and I really feel under-prepared for the back-to-school madness. I am, however, looking foward to having the girls back in the building, breathing some life back into the place. I'm not teaching Journalism this year, so won't have quite as much stacked on my plate this year. I'm SO SO SO looking forward to taking a few days off to fly to Colorado for Sarah Strasser's wedding, and spending the weekend with my best college girlfriends! The following weekend, my parents will be coming out for their fall visit, which will also be a nice treat. As always, I've got a few home projects lined up for them to help me with!

I'd better get back to it, but will post new pics soon.

Heart,
Laura
