We have about a month left til school starts, and, to be honest with you, although these kids can drive a mom up the wall by 9 a.m., I'm truly not looking forward to the back-to-school hustle. I think the kids would agree that the quiet mornings and ability to sleep in has gotten to be really nice.
But, while we are enjoying the lazy days of summer, all good things must come to an end. School will start, whether we like it or not. (Don't get me wrong, my kids love school.)
Fortunately for us, here in the north, school won't start until after Labor Day. While our friends down south have already started. I actually like the later dismissal in June and the later beginning in September, rather than getting out in May and starting up in August. (We've lived in the south, so we know the difference first hand.)
So, to those of our friends who have already started, sorry your summer is over...we will be enjoying our last few weeks of summer rest and relaxation. The back-to-school hustle will be in effect for us soon enough.
When did/do your kids start school?
