I have four of the greatest kids around. Each of their personalities will translate so well into adulthood. I am learning to take in the moments when we are together and hoping to find balance between school time and family time. They just went back to school from Winter break and I am sure they are absorbing knowledge and loving every bit of it. Here's to a Spring semester full of living life!
