Yipee! School's Out!

Summer has arrived for my children. Their last day of school was yesterday. I don't know about you but I always had mixed feelings on the last day of school when I was a kid. It was bittersweet. I was excited that summer fun was starting but I was sad to be leaving my friends and teachers. Now, as a mom, I still feel that way! Since I was a teacher pre kids, I get that double whammy. Would you believe my youngest son had the stomach flu and missed the last two days of school! Yes, the stomach flu in June-it was going around his school UGH! He is still crying about it. He feels like he didn't really finish the 4th grade. Poor kid. I think he will feel that disappointment when he is thirty. He's just that kind of boy. He has two birthday parties lined up this week. That will help him get over it, no doubt. And so the summer fun begins...
