August has been great! Our beach trip to Gulf Shores was, as always, a lot of fun and made extra special this year with the Hambleton Family joining us. James started PK2 last week and liked it! With his track record at the church nursery, we were very surprised! It is only 2 half days a week, but a nice break for Mama. James has also started going to sleep by himself. VICTORY IN JESUS! :-) I read a blog I found on Pinterest and it suggested an idea that seemed ridiculous to Randall & I, but we decided to try it anyway. The idea: let your kids decide when they go to bed. It does have a few guidelines, you don't just let them watch TV until midnight or run around crazy. The bottom line--it worked! The first night we tried it, Randall & I were both shaking our heads saying this will never work and 4 weeks later he is still going to sleep by himself. Who knew?!?! They do grow up! :-) Enjoy the pics!
