End of School Countdown

The end of school countdown has been happening at my house for the last two weeks.

I have to admit, I am getting anxious for this school year to be finished too.

I won't have to wash uniforms in the middle of the week anymore.

I will get to go SHOPPING for new uniforms for both kids (they grew like weeds).

I won't have to get up at 6:00 AM anymore.

I get to still COOK breakfast, but without the time crunch (I can be more creative).

I get to still COOK lunch.

I won't have to make lunches before I make breakfast.

There will be more dirty dishes,

but I will have two extra helpers around all day.

There will be trips to the library.

There will be trips to the pool.

I will even take the kids to the dreaded beach.

Orthodontist APPOINTMENTS,

Singing and signing lessons,

Picnics at the park,

Painting pictures,

Maybe painting the house.

We will SORT through and get rid of outgrown clothes.

We will SORT through and get rid of unnecessary school papers.

We will INVENTORY the school supplies that were never used,

and we will seek out the BEST SALES on the school supplies that need replacing.

I love SHOPPING.

I love to COOK and bake, especially breakfast.

(So much that my daughter actually complained. She doesn't want pancakes or muffins, or eggs. “We have them all the time.” She wants me to buy boxed cereal.)

I love APPOINTMENTS because I get to sit and knit.

The analytical in me loves to SORT and INVENTORY things.

This summer is going to be awesome!
