First Day of Summer

Today was the first day of summer "break" and ...

• I dragged the kids out of bed an hour earlier than a school day.

• I entertained a tired six-year-old at the closed-to-non-swim-team-members pool for two hours while Emma and Adam were at swim practice.  

• the kids played wii and ate popsicles while I made a gazillion phone calls and answered emails about the youth conference activities we're in charge of. 

• I brought my brother Tim to the airport. 

• we met a new friend at the pool.

• we only stayed for an hour, so we could rush Spencer off to lacrosse practice 12 miles away in rush hour traffic.

• I entertained two exhausted children at lacrosse practice for two hours. 

• we came home and whipped together a quick dinner of chicken and bean taquitos. 

• we ate dinner at 9:15pm. 

• Glen got home from work at 9:30pm. 

• I put the younger kids to bed at 10:00pm. 

• Cami returned from her babysitting job at 11:10pm and Spencer's friend is just leaving and I am going to bed ASAP. 
  
  
  
  

 

It's exactly one day into summer break and I am questioning my sanity at signing the kids up for swim team and thinking that I'm already about ready for a summer break break.
