For all of my Indiana family and friends, school has started already. FB is full of back-to-school pictures and frowney emoticons about kids going off to kindergarten.
School doesn't start for us until after Labor Day. I've heard it referred to as the Kings Dominion Law (Kings Dominion is an amusement park)....because the park would lose it's school-age employees and Labor Day weekend is a money maker. Whatever it is...I like it. Sure it means that the kids go to the middle of June. But the heat of mid-June has nothing on the heat of August....I'd rather be a the pool (kind of).
This year is a little more complicated. My graduate classes start next week, a full two weeks before elementary school. That will be interesting. I want to enjoy my classes, but I'm more interested in continuing this fabulous summer with my boys. We are planning a trip to some nearby caves, trips to the pool, and hikes.....We are trying to squeeze even more fun into the summer for the boys and, in a way, delaying the inevitable because my H will go off to kindergarten this year too:
How did these last 5 years go so fast? He's my baby, my BABY! Okay.....I'll save it for the September 6th.
