End of school & Summer

Ah the joys of summer, with no school for a while. As a parent I am truly excited. To spend more time with my kiddos, as they are growing faster than I would like. I would like to say that I have so many things planned for our summer, but well life happens. My transmission on my truck is out so while I am still car shopping we will be homebound for awhile. That doesn't mean we won't have plenty to do. I figure I'll get them to "spring" clean their rooms to start off our summer. Ah, they will be so angry excited. (You do hear the sarcasm right?) But I look at it that if we get that over and done with then we all just got to do upkeep. Oh I'll sell it to them somehow just to make it not seem so awful. We have loads of board games they still like to play as long as I sit down with them. I love that. That still, with one going off to high school & both boys in Jr. high, they would like to spend time with me. I am a lucky, lucky parent. Then we have trips to the pool, tennis matches on Wii, $1 movies on Wednesday(if we can get there) and well, crow that is only the first week. lol My boys are going to my uncles for a week. They are going to go help get the lease ready and shoot their rifles or gun or well I never call them by the correct name. My daughter, my oldest will be staying with me so we can bond a little more before the big jump to high school. She has PDD, and has just started showing different interests, wanting to know about things she didn't care about before and it may be delayed, but I am so thrilled. I haven't picked them up from school yet, but I am sure by later I will be an emotional wreck. I just don't know where all the time has gone. I do know that I promise to try and enjoy every moment of our summer together. :)M
