First day of School...

Comes dash around the corner...

"mom it's 7:11 I think were doing real good on time"
:)
Oh the joy of confident kids...
This morning the security and sense of self were so apparent in my two darlings.
They went off very easily to the new school year.
The sandwich center is a morning dream...LOVE IT!
Dash kept grabbing the lunch bag before I had it done.
He was READY! to go baby...
It was cool! No attachment issues no fears just lets do this thing!

My hens are not keeping up so I made some muffin to amend the breakfast.
Some cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on the tops

Last night Dove came in and said she was a little scared.
We spoke of how it was cool that yer last year teacher knew this years teach...I said "they must be friends"...you know if they are friends then the new one must be OK.
Her little face eased and she said that's cool that they know each other and she was off to bed happy.

I LOVE her little out fit choice.
She used her saved allowance to get the top and vest (good old WalMart)
I got the jeans and shoes. It is really wonderful when they use their own efforts to acquire. In our culture the advertising mecca has made it very difficult I think for parents to require a little shall we say buyers remorse out of the child as to help in their adulthood. It is at first hard to not just give them the moon but it is wisdom not too. They were so happy yet Dove still had a bit of a tummy.

She is so funny she puts her hand on her hip when she poses. I think she must of gotten that somewhere. One hip up.

Off they went.
With Joy the bus driver was last years driver!
I love this woman she is awesome.
Tell ya' when my babies even your babies for that matter are in someone else' care I worry about the driving abilities and character of them.
With her I have ease!

I went to the neurologist this morning.
He thinks that the stress disorder and the PTSD are the main issues causing the memory blank outs and the migraines are getting intensified from it.
He wants me to get into a therapy called
Rapid Eye something something...?????
Also he and I both think having the medication on hand to control the stress response at first sign might be a better way to address the migraine. He feel confident that I do not have Alzheimer at this time. No promises for tomorrow except for Gods now that is a good one, promise that is...:)
I gave him a few muffins at the end of the visit and he teared up a little.
It was dear to see the heart of a man touched by a simple kindness.


So I got some chicken feed on the way back home dropped it off and went to the home store for some potting mix for the starters. The window tenting for the heat control on west window. Last year we added it to the patio door and saw a huge difference of the electric bill. It will work out to be about $15. a window to do our self. We have the duel pane window and the shade screen too. Lets keep the heat out the rest of the way. It is 72% heat out rated.

I made Doves bed and looked in on Dash's room to feel compassion for the little dude.
He needed some help.
So I changed his bed and made it like The Beaver's.
He only uses a quilt loosely never really made.
He was ready to try it this way again.
With his sensory stuff this is a big step folks a big step!
He learned to tie hes shoes too!
He is 8 now and really thriving!

Oh he was touched and humbly thanked me.
Got out the army guys and if you were a butterfly on the wall you would just grin. There is a intense battle over here with mass casualties.
See them on the floor this not 10 minutes after walking in the room!

Another day
:)

See the bottom shelf...
need I say more.
they are all nice now.

Well the day was fabulous for them and quiet for me.
I love these two.

Mr Man is doing overtime and supper is not even imagined yet
So I better go.
Good life to you all.
