I know that many parents are probably breathing a sigh of relief now that their kids will be returning to school right away, but I can’t help but feel a bit of sadness. This summer has been fun with the kids and I hate to think that we won’t be seeing them as much anymore. We’ll have three of them in school fulltime now, so it is going to be quite quiet around the house.
I don’t know about you, but when they are in school, life is a lot more stressful. I suppose that part of the problem is that even though we get things ready the night before, it is always a fight to get them out the door and to the bus on time. Also, for the first few weeks, we are going to have to deal with whiny kids as they get used to scheduled bedtimes and longer days that tire them out.
I’m just not looking forward to it at all. At least there is today, the last day of summer left.
We are going to make the best of it.
