I am sooo ready for summer. More so than my kids, I think! Even though it means I will have all of them here alllllll day long. It also means we do not have to be so scheduled.
My current status of a Mom Taxi is MWF-pickup at 11 and 3:10, TTH- pickup 11 drop off at 12:00, pick up at 3:00(I have to get in the line early to get out of there) pick up at 3:10!!!!! Throw in a couple of soccer practices and games!
At least in the summer I do not have this rigid drop off and pick up schedule.
We will be able to go to the pool at any time. Go to the zoo, farm, library, etc!!!
AND NO HOMEWORK!!! Yes, it is just as stressful for me.
So here is our current plan.
Week 1 SLEEP IN
Week 2 Vacation Bible School 9-12
Week 3 A visit to relatives in OK. ( yes, me, myself and 4 kids, alone) That is if gas isn't $4/gal
Week 4 POOL and library time
Week 5 VACATION to Chicago ( American Girl Doll Store for girls)
Week 6 Recovery week
Week 7 Sydney's birthday week and it will be too hot to go anywhere
Week 8, 9 , 10 Hopefully making it to the pool, library, and hopefully a few cultural arts!
By week 11 it it Back to School!!
All this time I will hopefully be training for a 1/2 Marathon, creating next years spirit wear and Sydney will have 1 -2 days of tutoring.
It doesn't sound like much, but trust me I will run out of resources and energy keeping the kids cool and happy! It is all worth it not having to comply with a rigid schedule!

2 PUCKERED UP HERE!:
Let me know about that week 3 thing. If it is Tulsa area...maybe Austin and I can drive up and see you guys for the afternoon.
I wish I could sleep in and I wish I would force myself to run. But, a half marathon? Ow!
