First Day of School

Today officially marked the beginning of the 2026–2027 school year, and I know this one might be the hardest one yet. Elyse is officially a senior, and I honestly don’t know how we got here so quickly. Somehow, we’ve reached her final year of school, and I’m definitely not ready for it. Elyse is doing PSEO this year, so while she is technically still in high school, she’s actually only at the high school from about 9:00–9:30 each morning. Kallen also joined Elyse and Caleb in high school this year, which makes it feel like our kids are growing up even faster. I’m not sure how we went from little kids to having multiple high schoolers, but here we are. As excited as I am to watch them grow, I have to admit that part of me wishes time would slow down just a little. The kids are growing up way too fast, and it makes my heart a little sad. Whether I’m ready for it or not, here’s to another wonderful, memorable, fun, and educational school year. I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for each of them!
