It's so hard to believe that the summer is nearly over. It feels like it just started. And it has been sooooo nice to not be on such a tight schedule...I jotted down some goals for us in early June because, well, I have to have a list. I am a list maker. I have even made a list of things and included things that have already been completed just so I can feel the satisfaction of crossing out that item on the list. Sick? Maybe...
Well, we did accomplish some of those goals, like daily chores, some school time, reading goals for the kids, etc. But mostly we have just played!! Swimming, swimming, and more swimming. A visit from our precious Olathe cousins and Aunt Sandy & Uncle Troy. A few trips to Kansas and a trip to South Dakota. Throw in some swim lessons, playdates with friends, cousin time, VBS, and the summer is coming to a close.
So here's to warm summer evenings, playing catch in the backyard, road trips, ice cream cones, tan lines, staying up late, and wonderful memories. (Okay, there have been a few times I wanted to scream but who's counting?) I am SO blessed!
