August 11, 2014 - End of SummerPanic Sets In!
I just looked at the calendar and had a total meltdown. School starts just three weeks from tomorrow. What on earth happened to the summer?!!! We haven't even touched our "Things To Do This Summer" list.
That's a big deal because not only are there only three weeks of summer left, there are only three weeks left of our daughter's last pre-school summer. On September 2 she is off to Kindergarten.
For what remains of summer, I want to spend time just hanging out with my children and doing FUN things. I'll be writing a little less about gardening and canning and a little more about family activities. The garden will still be waiting for me after September 2nd, when I'm sure I'll welcome work to fill in the quiet days.
Enjoy the change of pace.
About me:
My name is Theresa, aka "Tree" to some longtime friends and a few relatives.
I'm a (mostly) stay-at-home-mom of two. My passions include my family, my faith, and living in a simple manner that respects the blessings we have been given.
Bless the Lord, my soul... Who fills your day with good things.
Psalms 103: 2, 5
Every day for the next three weeks I am going to set a daily goal of activities to do with the kids. I'll post an update at the end of the day to let you know how it went!
