Save the Date and Pavlos Quote or johnny cash meets john denver...

Save the Date!!!!
Out 6th annual Women's Retreat at St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church in Portland, OR is coming up next month!!! Go here for more information and to register. If you are from out of town and need a place to stay, let me know. We don't have a big home but we do have an extra bed, couch, and some floor space:)

This morning, on the way into school, we were listening to John Denver as Pavlos requested (he is right now really into John Denver and knows all the words to a number of his songs AND is not afraid to sing them out loud). Anyway, from the back of the van, I hear Pavlos singing Rocky Mountain High and this is his interpretation of a line in the song, "I've seen the ring of fire in the sky." Johnny Cash, meet John Denver:)

For Mimi...

I don't think I need to say why this picture is for Mimi, it speaks for itself:)

Back to school, sort of...

Yesterday was the first day back to school.
Big P went for one hour (that was the teacher's plan for all the students).
Today: no school for him because the MWF half day students will be at school.
Tomorrow: the full time students (M-F) and half day (M-F) students.
Friday: everyone!

The school has changed their preschool program which we are really excited about. Pavlos should be entering Kindergarten but they are now following Montessori for 3-6 year olds. Pavlos will work his way up to 5 full days a week! So some students are MWF half day, some students are M-F half day, and some students are M-F all day. He will be eating lunch at school.

I took pictures yesterday but haven't uploaded them to the computer. He has been in school for 1 1/2 years! What a big boy!

Today we have nothing planned. Yesterday was crazy. Tomorrow and Friday will be the new normal:)

Next week will really be the new normal. I am so ready for this new schedule!
