Rewind Please!

So I have almost come full circle.  Here we are pictured with the best, most awesome, fabulous, amazing, preschool teacher EVER.... Mrs. Maro Rogers of the famous Little Red School House. (Can you tell how much I LOVE her?)  She opened her preschool in Lexington and taught my older sister and closed the year that Marshall graduated.  (in between teaching my older brother, myself and my younger brother)  She walked on the balance beam, crossed the monkey bars, grew tomatoes, and pulled her piano outside for singing with butterflies in the sunshine.   She also had see-saws!!!!  Sadly it was a different time... (and I honestly never thought I would be never be able to use that phrase) but most of her graduating classes remained together as a class until high school graduation.  That means  we started kindergarten together and travelled through each grade as pretty much one group - amazing and special.

This picture was taken many, many years ago as Marshall was graduating from this tiny little preschool and beginning kindergarten at Lexington Elementary School.  You can see my little Emerson, who was only 2 at the time of the photo.  Well fast forward... here we are in 2018 and he is officially a senior at River Bluff High School.  I have no idea how we got here so fast!  This summer is a special one as we will be preparing for this sweet boy to start college the following year.  Please take the time to enjoy your children every day.... they really do grow up in the blink of an eye.
