And just like that summer is over. Well, not quite. We have exactly one week left. And then these backpacks, stuffed with kleenex and crayons and freshly sharpened pencils, will be headed out the door. As early as our school year starts, I think we're ready for a change of pace. Summer has been fantastic, but there is a lot to look forward to this fall. (Not the least of which is having just one child home during the day - what on earth are Elliot and I going to do by ourselves all day?! I can't wait to find out.)

back to school

Enjoy your one week!
ReplyDeleteI know you and Elliot will find lots to do and he will love it. School really starts early but then it gets out early too.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe your kids start in ONE WEEK! That is so crazy. We still have over a month to go.
ReplyDeleteWe still have nearly a month to go as well. Summer is both crazy and wonderful. At least we've done the back to school lists taken care of, and just one room that needs a deep cleaning and organizing. Besides that it's lots of backyard playing, swimming and lazing around to wind down the summer.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week! We, too, have one week left (give or take) before we head back to Alaska for my husband's third year teaching in the bush. Summer went WAY too fast!!!
ReplyDeletekitty back pack is adorable!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe school is starting.
