Onward & Upward: 8th Grade is Imminent
Today is Aidan and Shea's last day of 7th grade. Not to get all mushy...but oh, how well I remember when they were tiny twin babies; and now here they are just one year away from high school.
This has been such an amazing year, watching them grow and change. This transitional time from elementary school to middle school is monumental. They not only look so much older and mature, but their interests, goals, and ideas changed significantly from this time last May.
I love that they each have activities that they excel at and enjoy. I dig that they each completely rock their own styles. I find it so interesting to see how different their friends are; as well as their musical tastes, habits, and hobbies.
I am so proud of the people they are becoming and feel so lucky to be their mom. Watching them as teenagers and hanging by their sides during this portion of their journey is truly incredible.
I can't wait to report in on how 8th grade goes down. Love you, boys.

Hey lady! These pictures are so great!!!!!! And so very professional, Brynn must be a genius, to be so put together at such a young age. I'm sure you & Steve had alot to do with how intelligent your kiddos are too. ;)
I can tell you both are good parents & your children will go far in their lives!!!
What you wrote about your boys was so full of love it made me smile the whole time I was reading your post.
Good luck to you all for the rest of the year. <3
Brynn is such a skilled photographer! I love her work :)!
Oh my gosh! I can't believe the guys are 8th graders already! They are both such rad people. I love seeing all the pictures and hearing what they are up to. What a beautiful, awesome family you have, Jinxi doll!
