Cafe Au Cupcakes

This morning, Shane let me sleep until 10. It was wonderful. My students are very rowdy this year, mostly boys. It's like having 25 overgrown Lukes in a classroom. The girls keep stopping me to tell me how much they love my pink hair. I fear they're going to be disappointed when they learn my hair is much cooler than me!

This morning, when I finally stumbled out of bed, Luke asked for coffee just like mommy and daddy. I made him a half cup of decaf mixed with Sweet Buttercream creamer (yes, in case you're wondering, my love affair with International Delight is still going strong). He sat next to Shane and said, Daddy, let's drink our coffee. I'm so sad to miss these moments on the weekdays, but eternally grateful to have them on the weekends.

This might be one of my favorite pictures from you. The only way it could get any better is if Tommy was sitting there drinking the sweet buttercream directly from the bottle with his cute bed head. Good luck with the 8th graders this year. Sounds like a tough crew to handle.

So, our Kroger had Sweet Buttercream on closeout awhile ago and I bought two bottles at the reduced price, thinking it was gone for good. BUT THEN we were doing our shopping the other day and it was BACK! At the regular price! No closeout stickers! Could it be here to stay?!?!

P.S. That picture is adorable. Did Luke like his coffee? :-)

SO CUTE! Oh but I love that picture.

Rowdy 8th grade boys - ouch. 8th graders can be so tough. I haven't met my kiddos yet (one week of summer left, then one week with just teachers) but I did get my schedule today. I am happy with my schedule, but now crossing my fingers not to have too many rowdy 10th (and 12th actually) grade boys. ;-)

That is the cutest picture ever. I know this transition is a hard, painful one. I'm thinking of you.

I scrolled down *and* did a search, but still I found no other mention of the pink hair. What did I miss?

And yes. I echo the cute {cute!} picture.

HA! I love that you actually gave him coffee and creamer! I would have given him chocolate milk and lied to him. This is why Ihave no kids!
