First day of school.....
Sorry it has been a few days but I am very superstitious and things were going too well to take a chance of some karma ruining it. Last night before Faith went to bed she told her mother and I that it was the first time in her life that she was not afraid to go to school. She got up with her little sister and they both were excited to get ready. She was all smiles and just a bit nervous. To make a long story short, Faith and Cass made it to class today with no issues what so ever. The school did a wonderful job. There were some very special teachers ready for them with open arms and to ensure a smooth transition. It was so amazing and yet hard to believe that two years worth of hospitalizations, homeschooling, doctors appointments, IEPs, crying, struggling, praying all came to this morning and Faith realizing her dream of going back to school!!!! Abbi had a fabulous day in kindergarten and Tess helped the librarian until her school starts in two weeks. I just want to set back for the next couple of days and really enjoy this. None of this would have been possible without all of our friends, families, supporters and those who gave us a push when we needed it. To all of those who do not believe or had any doubts of the wonderful things that are possible with our four legged best friends then just read the past year of this blog. Thanks everyone, from the bottom of our hearts!! Kris and Renae

LOVE! I spied a bit today, and WOW! Faith and Cass were as perfectly simple as can be. Cass especially loved my class. He even got a little frisky and tried climbing on Faith while I was teaching. This of course got her giggling and well, me too. Sweet little guy. He even left me a little fur to remember him until tomorrow.
