Tim, Britny, Claire and I went to Dallas yesterday for her increase. It was our first trip during her 2nd grade year. If all goes as planned she will be a 3rd grader eating anything and everything!!! It's really very exciting and very hard to wrap my head around.
She has had a barking seal-like cough when she doses and when she has played hard. We left Dallas with a rx for an inhaler. She will use the inhaler 3 times a day for the next week then as needed for intermittent asthma. Claire is also now eating 3 peanuts twice a day. For all you mathematicians out there - that's 6 peanuts everyday!! All in all it was a great trip. It was very easy, and Claire did her schoolwork on the road.
School started last week. Cole is in 5th this year and Claire is in 2nd. They both have fantastic teachers. I can't begin to explain how wonderful it is to be able to relax when I drop them off in the morning. I know that God is in control; He placed us at this school. It's hard to believe this is Cole's last year in the nest, and I know Claire's time there will fly by just the same.
I am working on living in the now. Not worrying too much about what's next, just enjoying everyday. This is such a fun age, no more baby stuff. They are actual real kids now.
Nothing more to report for now. We head back next week - 7 more steps until her graduation!!
