We had to make ONE MORE TRIP to Angleton Pool with friends. |
We are feeling the weight of the end of summer at our house. Lots of talk of going to bed early so we can be ready for the 6:30am wake up time next week. I am so unprepared for this. We've had late nights and late mornings all summer. And it's been lovely (the late morning part).
But it all ends in 7 days. That's not a lot of time to make up for whatever we've missed this summer. And we haven't missed much. We made a long list of the outings we've made the past two months and each kid starred their top 3, or 5, and Elijah went to 8.
What I miss is the kind of summer that comes to most people's minds when they hear the word Summertime: downtime. Sure we're not rushing to school at an unreasonable hour, but we're rushing everywhere else all for the sake of FUN. And the kids have had a blast, so job well done. I can pat myself on the back. Now if we can save up these last days and fill them with board games, barbies, babies & books - all without leaving my carpeted room or getting out of my pj's - that would be summer completed.
