    I just have DD15 who has 5 weeks of summer camp this year!!! whoooooo hooooo thank god for my family and their support. But during the weeks she is here im sure her friend will be around. My place ends up being the snack stop off after school. I think I need a separate freezer for Popsicles alone! 
    “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”

    I only have DD and she goes to day camp, so it's not all that much different from the school year. Just no homework (yay!).

    We used to be the go to house. But once we moved here, the neighbors behind us are the go to house!!! Woo hoo!!! Oh, wait...I'm too excited about that aren't I?? Haha there are about 10 kids that congregate there on a regular basis.

    This summer will be interesting. I will have all 4 boys home for 4 weeks, then ds7 & ds4 will be going to school (year round) and then ds13 will be here for 4 more weeks after that before the high school (traditional) starts. I'm thinking I will make use of his babysitting services & try to sneak out for an hour here & there just to get a little break for my sanity. He can handle ds3 easily.

    Only 12 more days of school!
