Life Lately- Beginnings

Beginnings.  I feel like a lot of things are in the beginning stages right now. Summer is melting into Fall, my favorite time of year, and we have so many important changes happening here in the Mock House.

For those of you that don’t know Christopher and I are opening our own T-shirt shop in the next few months. A lot of preparation has gone into getting things just right, and we can’t wait for things to be up and running.

Aside from that Hallie is back to ballet class, but now she gets to go all by herself.  Her Mommy and Me days are over which is so bittersweet.  But she is just oh so happy to be in class with all her friends and hearing her squeals and giggles from outside the closed door just warms my heart.

Last night we had meet the teacher.  It went great! Hallie immediately went into the classroom and started playing with all the toys and the other kids.  We are lucky to have our longtime pal Bowen in her class as well as her new friend Kylie from ballet, so I don’t have to worry about her feeling scared or lonely.  Her teachers were so nice and look as if they have plenty of experience which put my mind a little more at ease. Hallie is fiercely independent and is frustrated easily. We have been starting to have more temper tantrums recently, so I am happy to know these teachers have likely seen it all!
I am kicking myself for not getting a photo of Hallie with her teachers, but I was so distracted asking questions and getting to know the teachers and other families. I will be sure to flood you with school photos next week however, so stay tuned!

To add to all the newness, HappilyEverMock is making some HUGE changes.  Starting next week, you can find us over at our new very own domain: www.happilyevermock.com  This is such a big exciting change for us, and I hope you will continue to follow along!
