First Day of 7th grade

Today was Taylor's first day of 7th grade. He is now closer to graduation that he was this time last year, sniff sniff. However if this morning was any indication how our year would go, I am going to need lots of prayers just to make it through. It was a rough morning around our house this morning and all beause of the cast that is on his arm. What started out as a potentially good morning quickly turned south. It all started with the morning shower, where I wrapped his arm with electrical tape instead of duck tape because we ran out... From there it just kept getting worse. His cast smelled, so he thought, I could not smell it... I tried to spray Holister on it to which he replied, "wouldn't work". So needless to say by the time these pictures were taken, we were both at our breaking point.

I had to bribe him for these pictures, I said if he took them well, I would only do two, so that is all we got.

By the time I dropped him off at school he was in a better mood and I did get an, "I love you" out of him as he was getting out of the car.

Ahhh the life and times of a pre-teen, one of us may not survive!
