As parents we pray that our children will make the right choices. We teach them to “do the right thing”. We try to set a good example. I find that my efforts pay off when I talk to their teachers, or their friends parents. When I hear of how they handled certain situations without me there to help them make decisions. The following story is about my best friends six year old son, Parker. I know she must be proud.
Parker and two of his classmates were coming out of the library and spotted a $100 bill. They immediately brought it to their teacher who asked if they ever thought about keeping it. They children said that it did not belong to them so they wanted to turn it in. The teacher nominated them for the Lee County “Do the Right Thing” award and they were honored by the sheriff’s department and received letters from Congressman Connie Mack and Senator Bill Nelson.
I am not sure my six year old would have turned it in. I think this is very impressive.

I have so many things I should write about, Gustav, politics, the fact that little Caylee is still missing, the list goes on. I probably will write about it all at some point.
Tonight, I want to share some happy pictures from my family’s Labor Day weekend at Lake Oconee. We had a lot of fun with friends and neighbors. The kids played ALL day on Sunday, no down time. And I actually enjoyed it because I knew that pool time and summer activities are coming to an end.
What’s next? My most favorite time of year! FALL! Falling leaves, cooler weather, pumpkins, Halloween, and just a change. A change of seasons. I grew up in Florida and in Florida you don’t really feel the change of season. In Georgia, we do and I just love it.
But tonight, I am thinking about the end of summer and what a good one it was.

I have received a lot of compliments on the professionalism of the photographs on the website. They were taken by professional photographer, Jen Wunderlich, and she happens to be one of my very best friends.
My family is headed to the beach for vacation next week, and it is the first time by youngest, who will be 2 years old in November will see the beach. Last time we were there I was pregnant with him. We had some great pictures taken but of course he wasn’t really included in them. I am hoping we can find someone to take some that are equally as good of the four of us. I wish I could afford to bring my friend, Jen, with me because I know she would get exactly what I need.
She is also a stay at home mom with two kids, so her calendar is quite full. If you live in the Altanta area, and are lucky enough to book her, I promise you that you will not be disappointed. She is wonderful and patient with children and is very reasonable.
I will share by beach pictures upon on return, let’s hope they turn out good!
