Summer is over.

It is time.....time to say goodbye to summer.  So sad.  Every year I mourn.  Seriously I love summer.  I love the simple mornings, grilled food, pool time, time with my parents, and a fun schedule of things we want to do(for the most part).

This summer was so special with Israel and Dawit.  Sharing so many firsts with them as a whole family.  It is going to be hard for them when everyone is gone, and they are left with just me.  Let's face it, I am just not as fun as their teenage brothers and sisters.

Tonight Dawit said,  first sleep then preschool.  They do not start until Sept 6th so it was hard to explain to him that no, we need to wait a few more days.  He just wants to go to school like his big brothers and sisters.  He is going to be a little disappointed when he realizes that it is only twice a week and only for a few hours.

So goodbye summer but hello to a Sr, Sophmore, Freshman, 7th grader, and 2 preschoolers!!  Life just keeps going.  Whether  I want it to or not.

As we continue to work on language with our beautiful boys we often laugh.  Actually we laugh everyday with these guys.  They just crack us up. Today Israel and I were working on his S's.  Especially his "yes".  Here is a video of his progress.  Let's just say we have some more work ahead of us.  Remember, he has no idea what he is saying, I think that's what make its so funny. 




Here is a duet from our cuties.



So summer is ending for the James' but the laughing and the singing will not!!
