1st Day of School

Today was Mason's first day of school... I can't believe how grown up he is! He had so much fun at school, didn't even flinch when I dropped him off!





Oh how I just love this little guy!

Exciting News...

I am excited today for 2 reasons... #1: I passed my insurance licensing exam this morning on my first try, and #2: 1 week from today I will be in Texas and will get to see the Aoki's! The reality of them being gone is really starting to set in, for the first little while it just seemed like they were on vacation, and for anyone that knows them, knows that they went on vacation quite regularly! I miss Jake's stutter, the way he and Mason played together and even the fighting. I miss seeing the 2 of them come up the back stairs covered in dirt, I miss Ellie's fashion shows,the way she mothered the boys and even her drama. I miss calling my sister to see if she wants to go to the park or to the mall to go shopping, but that is all going to change one week from today! I get to experience everything that I have been missing! It will be fun to go kidless, but deep down I am feeling a little guilty leaving Mason behind. He asks on a regular basis, where Jake and Ellie are... he even tells me at random times that, "I need to go to Texas". It is so cute, but breaks my heart at the same time.

On a separate note, Mason will start school next Monday, he will be going to a Mother's Morning Out program 2 days a week. We went to orientation on Monday, and as we were getting out of the car he told me, "No, Mommy I am going to school, you can't come wit me!" I am so excited that he will get to make new friends! I think he is going to do just fine!

Maybe one of these days I will actually get some pictures and have a fun post... but for now just wanted to post some updates and let everyone out in Blogland know that the Wood's are still alive and well!
