Back To School











Looks like it is time for another school year to begin. We all went to back to school night on Monday night. On the way there Mykell asked Brooke if she had any lip gloss. I said "what the heck do you need lip gloss for? When did you start wearing that?" She said she needs it just in case she runs into any cute boys and she'd like to start wearing it today! I guess she's starting to notice boys a little bit.

We're really excited for this school year. Her teacher seems really nice and extremely organized. I'm so thankful we are able to send her to Christian Heritage. When I walked in the classroom they had this on poster board in the front of the room:

PLEDGE TO THE CHRISTIAN FLAG I pledge allegiance to the Christian Flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty to all who believe.

PLEDGE TO THE BIBLE I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God's Holy Word, I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path and will hide its words in my heart that I might not sin against God.

It was a good reminder of what a blessing it is that she gets to go to a school that teaches the Word and prays for and with our daughter during school hours. I love that they teach creation instead of evolution..

She is really excited for school this year. She is getting really organized and she's ready to go out and tackle another year of it!

Talk to you soon!
Mykell's 1st day of 5th grade!
