Vick Family

The most important thing I've learned over the years is that there is no way to
be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one.

Can you tell my camera batteries are dead?

On the way back from WI in the beginning of Aug- my batteries died in my camera. Like the vigilant scatter-brain I am, they have been included on my list for over a month now. I feel like I can't right on the blog- because I have no pics to show. So rather than fret- I am gonna just sum up some of what's been going on in our crazy house.
Aug 19th- My baby girl turned 8 and both her and my little man started school. It was Aidan's first day of Kindergarten and it was hard for me to let him go in. The whole family went to walk the kiddo's in to their class.
We are now in a new school district so it was nerve-wracking for Morgan. Even though she is in 3rd grade and a veteran by now for the first day jitters- it was a totally new school with new kids, teachers, EVERYTHING. So..... we went and dropped Morgan off first. We all walked her to her class and she found her seat. Yes, I did get pics, but not with my digital camera, so we will see how long it takes for those to get developed.
After we got Morgan settled, we had to traverse a million cars to go over to the primary school to drop Aidan off. That was not fun! I'm used to a little school, with little traffic! Not so with Greene County Tech. Huge school and 2 different campuses. So we finally got over to Primary and took Aidan inside. He remembered exactly where to go from open house and was so excited to go and meet his "new best friends". The boy does make friends easily. Everybody loves his easy-going personality. We got him settled in and took a cpl pics and we were instructed by Aidan that, "I'm good mom. You can go now." So with tears in my eyes, we watched from the door and then walked away.
Then they got to ride the bus home that day for the first time ever. I have always taken and picked up my kids from school- so that was nerve-wracking for me! But I got over it and they are doing very good!!!
The next couple weeks were very busy for us- getting back into the routine of everything. We had some busy weekends with our congregation and then Labor Day weekend, my family was able to come down and visit. Karen came from WI and mom and dad came from MO. We had a blast. We went to flea mkts, played cards, ate good food, and got some good visiting in. I wish everybody lived closer so that we got to visit more- but I guess that's life.
Hopefully this got u caught up in the activities of our family. Please feel free to leave comments or e-mails. I love hearing from everyone and will get back with you as I can.
