Texas Goodbyes

Well I have put off the blog long enough....now it is time to catch up.  I have had the blogs written in my mind but have yet to stop and sit down to write them. And now that I am, I will forget everything I wanted to write.

The biggest thing I am not too crazy about being a military family....ALL the goodbyes we have to always say!!!  Our very last morning in Texas we went up to Kerrick and Caelum's school to say our goodbyes...oh it was soooooo hard!  They all truly hold a special place in my heart. They were all such dedicated teachers who truly loved their job and their kids.  The boys have grown up with them and matured so much in all areas of their lives because of these fine teachers.  It is definitely going to be hard not to compare their new school here in North Carolina to their fabulous school in Texas.

Here is Kerrick and Ms. Sylvia...such a sweet, patient lady.  Kerrick always talked about his Ms. Sylvia and Ms. Anna.  They both were awesome teachers for Kerrick and he learned and blossomed so much in the Dragonflies with them!!

Kerrick and his buddies....Micah, Jaysen,and Michael

Kerrick and the ladies!!

Kerrick and Ms. Anna with Caelum and June photobombing!!  HA!!

Caelum and his classmates in the BusyBees.  They were all to sweet and each made Caelum a GoodBye Card!!  We will definitely cherish that special gift.

The boys with Ms. Janelle and Ms. Chantelle and Ryder photobombing!!   Ms. Chantelle always had that contagious smile when I went in to pick up Caelum!   She always had some funny story about what Caelum had done that day....I am sure he was not always on his best behaviour in there, but those dimples won her over everytime!! HA!!
And Ms. Janelle - where do I begin.  There will never be a blog site large enough for me to tell you about this amazing lady!!  She was always there through the deployments, just because moments, my "running" partner, a friend to call on anytime or just to know she is there, strong lady and I can keep going!!!! But she is greatly missed by us all....you def hold a special place in our whole families life!!!  THANKS for all you have done for us while we were there!

The boys with Mrs. Debbie....they both were in the Lady Bugs with this special, sweet teacher!!  She always smiled and never seemed to have a bad day!!  

The boys with Ms. Becky and Ms. Gloria.  And this is where it all began, with Ms. Gloria.  She was the first teacher we ever had there when Kerrick first began at Phoenix.  She has cared for both the boys in school and out of school.  The boys loved to run to her every morning and give her hugs.  Ms. Gloria was always so loving to them and rocked them a many a days at school!!

The boys with Mrs. Misty!!!  Kerrick had her in the Busy Bees and Caelum was about to transition into her class when she up and moved up in the school to Assistant Director.  Kerrick loved Mrs. Misty!!

Thanks for a wonderful 4+ years to these wonderful ladies and school. There were a few others that we could not get pictures with!!  You all definitely have some big shoes to fill at our new school here!!
