Today Esher and Paris start school and I started work. For the longest time I have been having a hard time with missing their first day of school. One day while at the temple I was feeling terrible about it. Then the thought came to my mind: Mom’s sacrifice a lot more than just a first day of school for their kids. I couldn’t believe how petty I had been this whole time. Yes, mom’s sometimes work late into the night to be able to put food on the table and never get to see their kids. My Love and I personally know of many mom’s who work in other countries hoping to give their kids a better life and being forced to leave their kids to be raised by their family members. Sometimes they only get to see them once a year if that. My job at Provo High is 10 minutes away and it goes from 7:30 to 12:30. My Love has to get the kids ready and to school every morning. He is so amazing at it! The kids just love it and will remember it forever. Being off at 12:30 still allows me to go to the temple, meet My Love for lunch, do genealogy with Jo Ann, and still be home in time for the kids after school. I couldn’t have asked for a better job schedule.
We just love Mrs. Anderson- she is just the very best.
Esher is sitting right next to Mia.
I just love this boy!!!
Paris was a few minutes late to her class so, My Love only got a couple pictures of her.
She is so stinkin’ gorgeous!!
I was there to pick them up which I was very grateful for!!
On the way out of the building My Love looked over to see his friend Preston holding a camera just like him. He was also there by himself dropping off the kids. Preston laughed when he saw Jared and said “Boy, times have really changed!” I am so so glad they have!!!! Next to Jared, Preston is one of the most involved dads I have ever met. He is always doing everything he can to help his wife and is at every kid activity with the biggest smile on his face, just like MY LOVE!
