Liam started 4th grade at Uintah Elementary. I took several shots before he headed out to school but couldn't get a single one with him keeping his eyes open. Luckily he has a couple of good friends in his class and is content so far.
Lila started preschool at the place she went last year so there was no drama. She was very excited to go and have some play time with other girls. She came home the first week and was ecstatic that she could write her name all by herself. This is definitely the age of independence.
I had another birthday this August too. Ben was very thoughtful and bought me a lemon cake, perfume and sweater. He also got take out from a nice restaurant and we enjoyed having a quiet evening with the kids. Lila was probably more excited about my birthday than anybody and kept jumping up and down asking me where my presents were. It's nice to have kids around to keep birthdays exciting.
Also got to go out to one of my favorite restaurants with some friends to celebrate.
