School begins

That time of year when kids are both sad and happy.  Sad summer is over, but happy to see more of their friends.  Sad school work begins, happy recess is still in place.  Parents are happy and sad as well.  Happy that school begins and kids are more occupied (no more "I'm bored") and sad that the crazy schedules begin. 

Gabriel has a full schedule this year and is busily finishing his summer reading (nothing like waiting until the last day...).  Marian hasn't found out her schedule yet, but excited about seeing friends.
