@Eggs 1. My fav moment today is happening right now, Penelope and I are having a “sick day” we both finished a book. She wants to put a review on here for it.
2. Last week one of my best students went on the homeless list, he has not been to school since. I‘m heartbroken for him and his family. His birthday was Sat.
3. Goofy, kind, tired

Many of you have watched my babies grow up so I might as well update everyone. This was the last run of Haiden‘s junior year. Next year banners will fly every race with his face to honor him and his fellow senior runners. Scholarships are coming in and my mommas heart is so sad and so proud. Slow down time. It‘s going too fast.

Another day at the library with this kid. (All 3 actually went, this is the only one who slowed down). Our library finally opened up the seating area and were so diligent with sanitizing everything. SO happy with the privilege to be able to read and have so many books at my hands (and all my littles!)

Picked up this beauty a few weeks back with Penelope and Ashley. We managed to see an escaped pet hamster get captured. Never a dull moment with those two around.

How is it August?! This is my Aug 2021 tbr pile. Special nod to the end hook that my BFF let me barrow from her book of the month program!
