Today is Monday. It's the first day of the week and the first day of a new school year for my kids. Hannah is a Sophmore this year, and Dylan will be in 8th grade. I've been taking these "first day of school" shots since kindergarten. I can honestly remember the first day of school ever for both of them and it seems just like yesterday. ...sigh. I don't really get sad or down when I think of myself growing older or when I have a birthday. But, with every birthday and every new school year with my children I do feel a pang of sadness on these days. They are getting older and all too soon will be flying the coop. This momma won't be a happy bird on that day.
Have a happy Monday. :o)

I like this tradition of yours - what a good idea, and something to look back on!
Well done on getting the "Monday" theme.
Your kids look lovely and how I know that feeling that they just grow up too quick - one moment it seems like it is all nappies and feeding, the next they have grown up and gone :-(
Nice tradition for documenting how they change over the years. I know exactly how you feel - mine are going into grade 6 and 8 and for me time is flying way too fast. On the other hand, I think I enjoy each year more than the last one. ;)
