Two more drivers

Ash and Ace both took their learner’s test today, and the both passed. Now, we have four children who have their learner’s license. These two are pretty excited about getting some driving practice in.

First day of school

Today was the end of an era.

For the first time in 20 years, we don’t have any children homeschooling. Ace entered grade 9 at LCI today, graduating from middle school at Gilbert Paterson. Quillan started grade 6 at Gilbert today, and he got on the wrong bus on the way home; Ace got on the wrong bus in grade 6, too, so it may now be a family tradition. Siobhán starts grade 3 at Fleetwood Bawden tomorrow.

Mary also teaches her first class tomorrow of the semester and will attend her first class of her PhD coursework on Friday. Regan is in university in Winnipeg, and Sinéad starts their final year at Lethbridge College. Ash and Kim are the only ones not in school this year.
