Last Lunch of Summer

The kids have wanted to go to Wendy's all summer and so today I took them. (maybe I have put it off)  Kimi has wanted the Frosty's.  I think those Frosty's keep people coming back. Where else do you "dip" everything from your meal in ice cream? I was still full from breakfast but did enjoy treating my kids and watching them enjoy themselves just a little bit longer. (school starts tomorrow)  I was glad Jaydan was around so that he could come too.  Speaking of Jaydan.....Jaydan is going to Massage School and today I got a text asking me if I wanted a "Foot Message".  Heck YES!!!  I loved it!   Oh my.... I am going to love having Jaydan practice on me.  I think even Larry will enjoy being practiced on.  Jaydan has wanted to go into Massage for years and is following his dream.  I am so proud of him.  I am proud of each one of my kids.  I feel so very blessed to have the family that I do. I love them all!

Back to School....

Some of the ladies that I live by got together for Breakfast to celebrate Back to School.  I will admit that this year I'm not as excited for school to start.  This summer hasn't been very stressful or messy or bad at all.  I would love a little more time off with the kids.  I know the kids are a little excited for school to start.  As they prepare to go my mind goes back in time and I remember how I was excited to go back.....to meet to people....and learn new things....and have fun.  I loved school and have happy memories of it!

I hope my kids have happy memories of their summers and also of their years in school.  What a glorious time in their lives.  What a glorious time in my life....... I love having a bit of peace and quiet.  I love that the house stays clean for a few hours.  I love that I can do what I want for a few hours.  I do love that my kids have the opportunity and privilege of going to school and getting an education.  

I'm thankful for other mom's that I can share my experiences with.  I love that no matter how close in age any of us are we all experience the same kind of things and feelings.  Today I feel blessed!
