Keeping it all in perspective...

Summer 2014 with the Boyen Bunch Quote of the summer so far comes from Lorelei yesterday.  She was in shock to hear Bailey say "God isn't real."  Since 6th grade world history, my super analytical and highly intelligent son, began to question whether God existed.  His questioning came from perfect logic...how can all of the other religions be wrong and only Christians are right?  Being a parent who has decided to let my children discover religion for themselves, I haven't pushed the issue with him.  Back to Lorelei, so Bailey again made some comment about God not being real.  Lorelei suddenly seemed to have a very clear perspective of Bailey.  "Mommy," she said, "Now I know why Bailey is always so grouchy!  He doesn't believe in God!  Well, I do!"  And that was the end of that conversation! ;). I think she may be onto something, but it's something Bailey will have to figure out for himself. ~~~~~~~~~~   Our summer seemed

School's out for summer!

And the Boyen Bunch couldn't be happier!  We started our first night off right... Lorelei held a popcorn stand. Her customers were happy too...it was free popcorn! We had breakfast for dinner at 8:30 p.m. :) The kids are still up, no baths and certainly not ready for bed! They look pretty happy to me...they said goodbye today to 1st, 2nd, 6th and 8th grade. As for me, even though I'm not officially off yet, since I have to finish up packing my classroom tomorrow, I'm feeling stress free and extraordinary! ;) Happy summer friends!
