Every day is hard with all the tots at home. But every day I love them. I try to cherish them while they are by my side, but it's not always easy when chaos abounds in every corner. sigh...
School starting means I send my most independent and helpful kids away for most of the day ... with my youngest and hardest at home (never fear - I love 'em... but their ages are hard).
School means more complications with friends, schedules, rushing about to meet the bus, homework, packing lunches, more sitting still, increased anxieties about meeting expectations in the classroom, etc.
But it also means new experiences, opportunities for growth, meeting new friends, growing brains, recess, school parties, etc.
sigh... not sure how i feel about it all. But alas, summer must come to an end... or does it have to?
I smelled Autumn tonight... it was in the wind and chill. I love Autumn. But I'm not ready for winter. Shiver. Let's not go there.
Summer - please stay ... at least in my heart!
