"When the student is ready, the master will appear."
That chinese proverb was running through my mind as we arrived
back in Houston just a few days before school began.
There was still a lengthy list of school supplies to acquire,
immunizations to update, class schedules to pick up
and a 'meet the teacher' afternoon. But Sunday evening,
before the Monday morning - we were all confident
that the students were ready! As usual the night before was one of
kids tossing and turning in their beds, while
visions of back to school scenario's danced through their heads.
And that first morning was one of backpacks, excitement and anticipation.
(A few traditional first day photo's too)!
At 8:10 a.m., Lady London officially began her course of study
in the third grade! Hooray for another year at Kuehnle!
The student was ready and her teacher's (master's) appeared.
Mrs. Morrison and Miss Alexander. She was happy about that!
At 8:50 a.m. Jacer officially began his 7th grade year at Kleb Intermediate.
A new school for him (due to district rezoning) Kleb is his brother's alma mater.
I think he was excited about that...after all he is a Bearcat in training!
This student was ready and all seven of his teacher's (master's) appeared.
Phew! It was a busy and an exciting morning!
We sent Jace and London off with a prayer, hugs and a bundle of good wishes!
But that wasn't all of our excitement on the first day of school. No siree...
...that same morning, at 7:54 a.m., this 'little Mann' arrived.

Welcome little one to the first day of school - 'Earthlife 101."
Eight days early, this precious bundle caught us all by surprise
but you know what they say,
"When the master is ready the student will appear."
(And appear he did. All 6 lbs and 11 ounces of him).
Backpack's and Diaperbags! We are delighted!
Grandbaby Boy #3 is coming soon so stay tuned...
