New Beginnings

I love the Fall season. I love the coolness of the air, and the changing of the leaves. I love the bright reds and oranges and the sound of them under my feet after they fall to the ground. I love being able to pull out my fall decorations, and burn a fall scent in the candle warmer. Fall is also one season closer to the most wonderful time of the year...need I say more?

But, the biggest reason I look forward the the Fall is because it means we are back on a schedule. Don't get me wrong...I LOVE summer time. I love the laid back, carefree days, but after a while it feels good to get back into a rhythm. This year however is a little different.

I dropped my two oldest off at school today. Usually I look forward to the beginning of the school year, but this year...not so much. The biggest reason? Our Princess went to middle school for the first time. I feel really old now!! What am I doing with a 12 year old? Really, it seems like only yesterday I was sending her to pre-school....now it's middle school, before I know it she'll be sending off her own babies.

I need to settle down I know. Perhaps Christmas music may help...
