Let it Begin

It's here. Summer Vacation. It doesn't feel like it's summer yet outside. It's about 60 degrees and windy still today. The kids all wore jackets and long pants to school this week and I just turned the heat off in the house a couple of days ago. Regardless, the calendar says it should be time for school to be out for the summer.

I'm actually kind of excited for summer break this year. It seems like we have been running from one thing to another and there is never a moment to just sit back and be kids. Now they will have days filled with things like baseball, swimming lessons, lunch at the park and just playing outside with friends.

I'm also hopeful that a new chore chart system I started today will help to keep some order and encourage them to get their work done. We'll see how it goes.

We are all ready for summer to start, now if the weather will just cooperate, we'll be in business.
