Happy Monday!

What am I bragging this Monday about....no new charms or birdhouses. My boys are going back to school! Not just school, now they are both in High school. I am nervous, they are not. It's a big deal for me, so that's what I am bragging about.



Quote of the day

" Even as kids reach adolescence, they need more than ever for us to watch over them. Adolescence is not about letting go. It's about hanging on during a very bumpy ride."
Ron Taffel
Have a good day boys. Ciao La Mamma

    My youngest is a junior in High School this year! Knowing how fast time goes once one of them is in college (they are always coming and going!), I am hanging onto every day-but you can't stop time! Enjoy the HS days!
