Everyone in the Wallace household was certainly ready for school to start this year. Usually by the end of summer, all of us crave that routine that work and school put us in. In addition, the tragedy that my family has suffered through this summer made us want to get out of the summer routine and get to school. Starting school this year is a little bittersweet. Owen is starting Kindergarten which has both good and bad qualities related to it. He is growing up too fast, my baby that is, but I'm ready for the big kid stuff (no more diaper bags, etc for us). Abby started 5th grade - wow can you believe it, 5th grade. I can remember my 5th grade pretty well- which makes me sad that she is already there. I don't want next year to come. I don't want her to start middle school which are definitely the YUCKY YEARS!

Alec started middle school this year. But it's grades 7-8 here. I also remember those yrs, and agree they're the rough ones!
He's a good kid, and has lots of good friends, who are also nice kids, but he's also become a target for his 'class bully' this year. One of the 'popular' guys, who has taken a dislike to him for some reason.
And so the fun begins ...
