HAPPY MONDAY!

I mentioned in FRIDAY'S POST that I am trying to get all caught up on what has been going on in our lives in 2021.  And what better way to kick off the month of August than with the end of the school year back in May!

It's officially back to school month.  WAHHH!

I couldn't NOT share Cooper & Millie Jo's school pictures with you because they're just so stinkin' cute.  

Momfession : I don't buy school photos. Will I regret it one day!?! Probably so. 

If you're new around here, my family is involved in a non-profit pro-life organization.  It is such a blessing to our lives!  I want to take the time to tell you about my boy for a minute.  Every year, we do three fundraisers & the late spring/early summer fundraiser is called Baby Bottle Blessings.  This year, if you remember, we put our kiddos in a Christian school & Cooper took it amongst himself to write his headmaster a "business" letter asking if his school could set up a Baby Bottle Blessings challenge.  He said YES! All 14 classrooms got a baby bottle & made it a competition of who could raise the most money.  Can I just tell you that their school raised over $1500.  Not only that, Cooper's class specifically threw a baby shower & all items were donated!  All because my boy's voice & heart for unborn babies in the world.  I have tears just typing this because I can't wait to see how God uses him!

Before school ended, my kiddos were able to have field day!  I was so happy that we could be there, in person, for it!

These two sure are going to miss each other as they will be going to different schools this year!

And the last day of school was also awards day!  Always such a fun, exciting, yet bittersweet day!

This letter is from Millie Jo's teacher.  What a joy my girl is to us!  She received the citizenship award for her class!  We are so proud of her!

And our boy is officially a 5th grade grad!  Time is such a thief.  Holy cow!  Cooper also received the citizenship award & in his class, his teacher does a Christian Character award.  He received that as well.  She let the students vote & it just makes my heart so happy that he's such a great friend!

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6

Being their mama makes me so proud!

6th Grade (MIDDLE SCHOOL!!!) & 3rd Grade, we are ready for you!
