Beginnings.....

Okay we are going to do it. This family will do a journal/blog. Even if it hurts!!! Well to start, Josh is on business trip in CA. He'll be home thurs night. We miss him (even his snoring). Kaytlin started her first week back to school. My little first grader is going to school all day now. She even ate all of her lunch.... gasp! I thought she would be more tired when she came home but unstead she was fine. Isaac asked all day if it was time to pick her up yet. Isaac went today to a meet and greet at his school. It was the same teacher he had durring the summer but he was still excited because they were in a new room and it was already decorated. The jungle theme was perfect for him. He loved it all. He can't wait to start next week. The most important part to him is that he gets to wear his new Optimus Prime shirt. Whoo hoo for him. He's a little upset that he doesn't get to eat lunch at school like sister. I promised him that we would eat lunch after I pick him up at the park next door. That was sufficient for now. Today Kaytlin started back with Gymnastics and the jury is still out on whether it will be to much with school and soccer starting next month. This may be the last time we put her in it. As for me I still can't decide what I'm going to do with six hours a week to myself. I want to make it productive but I also want to be selfish and enjoy it. The kids got to talk to Auntie Rachael and daddy before bed so they were happy and I've promised myself that I WILL be going to bed earlier than normal so that I'm not so tired throughout the day. Good intentions are great..... but don't always work. Anyhow, so that's the point of this I suppose. I want all of the Las vegas Maxwell's to be able to write what they want. I'll introduce the kids to this idea tomorrow and I'll type whatever they would like to say. This will probably get very interesting!!! I would also like to included memories of things that happened in our family just to get some things in writing. I guess my memory for today would be of Kaytlin Starting Kindergarten and how she was so excited. Not nervous at all. I had no doubt that she would love it and excell. She did. She would run out of her classroom sooooo excited to see me and her brother. She's done that for the last three days. I just pray that she will always be that excited to see her mom even when she's to embarassed to show it. I never dreamed that a little tiny girl who was born so small and fragile would grow into a shining six year old who seems like she can and will do anything and everything. As for Isaac, he definately shares his sisters excitment for school and doing pretty much anything. I don't think the boy knows how to wipe the smile off his face. I hope and pray he will always be this happy. He has so much love inside that I know his future will be of serving others. Okay, goodnight.
