Hard to believe...

Here I am again.  This time I really need to keep up with this.  I am writing this with a son in his junior year of high school and a son in 7th grade.  With each school year I have more emotions.  As each year passes I am more aware of how fast time is going as well as how the time with my boys is getting shorter.

Cody loves to sing and has performed at Pure Rock Studios and also sang the National Anthem this summer at a soccer game.  I am proud of his willingness to perform in front of an audience even thought it can be nerve wracking and intimidating.

Connor is now a licensed driver and has a girlfriend.  Her name is Riley.  I really like his girlfriend.  It is hard to believe he only has two years of high school left.  I think I am in denial.  This year we will probably take a look at colleges.  It is still so hard to believe.

Both boys are still playing hockey.  Cody is still playing goalie and loves it.  His confidence makes it easier to be a goalie parent.  He handles the pressure of the position well.  I sometimes can't say the same for his mom.  :-)

I hope to keep this blog more up to date.  Seeing my posts over the years makes me realize how quickly time goes and how much can be missed along the way.  It is hard to believe at times that I at this stage in my life, but here I am and I am a happy mom of two great boys!

Cody's first bus ride to school.

On Friday I did not have to work so it was Cody's first day to ride the bus to school. He gets to ride the bus home with Connor. Things went great, and he enjoyed riding the bus. It was fun to ride home with his brother. I am so proud of them!

First Day of School 2018

School started a week earlier this year which was a bit of a change.  We survived the first week and things went smoothly.  Of course as a  mom I always wants a first day of school picture.  Connor isn't especially thrilled to have his picture taken, but did pose for a quick one.  Of course his smile is a bit cheesy because he wasn't happy about the photo, but I guess I at least got one.  I am proud of my boys and am so blessed.  With the first week of school already came the reality of ordering a cap and gown for Connor's graduation.  I am going to enjoy every moment of this year.  Cody's birthday is coming in two days and he will be 14!  Again, how can this be??  They are turning into such nice young men.  That is my goal.  Raise them to be good people, to be kind, caring and have manners and of course who respect.  I think we are ready for the 2nd week of school.

Uh oh!

Well, I was hoping this day wouldn't come this early, but today I received a call from school. Mr. Goetz, the school administrator, told me that he had Cody in his office along with another boy from Cody's class. Apparently, Cody's teacher asked Mr. Goetz to talk to the boys regarding their behavior. They had been shoving and hitting each other so the teacher decided they should be taken aside to make sure they know the rules. We will see what Cody's take is on this when we talk to him about it this evening...stay tuned.
