The first day of school

W.O.W.

The first day of school, ALREADY!!!
And in the words of Katie,
"the first day of school for us, and the first day of vacation for you!"

Crazy. Where did this summer go? That is my question... The kids will be home soon, with their heads full of great ideas for this school year. New crayons, shoes and pencil boxes. It is always exciting to meet a new teacher and old friends!!!

This morning on the way to the bus stop, they picked sunflowers... and it made me think of the story of the sunflower. It is a beautiful story of how sunflowers follow the sun. And in turn we could use their example to follow the light. The light of Christ. The light of goodness. The light of all things that make us better. So, here is to the light of a new school year!
