Zeb, Madison, and Judd - BFFsWhere does the time go?? It seems like only yesterday that Zeb was starting kindergarten and this past week he started 7th grade!! Along with 7th grade comes football. Zeb has been waiting for this all his life. Yes, it has had its ups and downs, but in the end he is enjoying being on the team and is anticipating his first game on September 1. Yesterday was picture day and they all looked so grown-up in their uniforms, yet so much like little boys playing dress-up. As a mom, I am surviving the middle school years with lots of prayer and worry. Teaching middle school for 3 years taught me that those are some of the most difficult years a child can face. So many things during this time shape who they will eventually become. People who were once friends no longer share the same interest and new friendships are forged as horizons broaden. As a parent we see children turning into teens and beginning to make their way in this world. Yes, there will be tears and laughter, but though prayer, family and friends we all survive. Hopefully we have taught them well. I am excited to see what the future holds for Zeb and his friends, yet a little sad at the fact that my little boy is growing up all to quickly.
Speckled Eggs!
