Mara's B-day and new adventures

A very Happy Birthday to my beautiful wife!
Not only is it Mara's birthday, but it is also Thomas' first day at school. When I was discussing presents with her, Mara said that if Thomas makes it to and from school without incident, that would be the best present in the world. I am sure we will have a report on that soon.
Love ya babe!

Happy birthday dear Mara.
Happy Birthday to you.

Today is Roscoe's full day of kidnergarten too. Don't worry, I am sure Thomas's teacher will be very great and everything will go great. :) Doesn't it kind of feel like you left a part of yourself at the school?

Happy Birthday Mara!!! I'm so glad that you guys moved here. I love being friends with you.

I still can't believe that Thomas has already started kindergarten. I told Cricket that Thomas is in kindergarten now and she told me that she is so proud of him!!! Funny huh?

Happy Birthday dear sister Mara - we all love you very much.

On my sister's (older by 4 years) first day of Kindergarten she cried and my mom had to stay around for an hour (silly since it only lasts about 3). Then on my first day I left my mom at the gate of the school and told her to have fun and play with my dolls if she got bored (my mom cried instead of me).

I have always let my kids go off with a happy heart - now they are all at school all day long and my heart is bursting with happiness. Now if I could just manage to get more done while they are gone.

WE LOVE YOU! Happy Birthday!

Man how time flies. After 16 years of us being friends I'm finally wishing you happy birthday on the right day (Thanks Nate). I fear that I will forever have the 6th imprinted in my mind.

We sure do miss you guys! We wish we could be there to help you celebrate. I hope you have a marvelous day.

Don't worry about Thomas, He's going to do great! The first day is always the hardest on us moms though. I still remember how hard it was to send Christopher to kindergarten.

Happy Birthday!

How wonderful is it that Thomas is now starting kindergarten, and to think that maybe he, too, will form friendships that still endure when he is the ripe old age of 31?

I'm so sad we can't celebrate your birthday together, but give yourself a big hug and know that you're much loved here in still-hot Arizona!

Happy Birthday, Mara! And, happy first day of school to Thomas as well! Let us know how both of these big occasions went.

Best regards,

Oh! Happy Birthday.

And I hope your husbands knows, that no matter what you say, that Thomas going to school doesn't get to count as his gift to you!!!

GAH! I totally missed out on this! I went on vacation and my google reader had over 300 new posts- I've been playing catch-up ever since. But that's besides the point...

Hope you had a very happy birthday!
