The summer of 2008: Another great "FUN" "BUSY" and "HOT" time for our family..... I can't believe it's almost over though, I tell my self every summer that we'll have lots of time for relaxation and spring cleaning! OH NO! I seem to always be wrong, but I'm definitely okay with it because I am spending quality time with my family :) We've done alot of fun activities and planned great trips and still have more to come. Summer's are another great time to bond closer with the family! Even though school is out, we as parents can still teach our kids, when we are on road trips we play spelling games or memory games using the road signs etc. We still read books every night. We also go hiking and talk about nature, find different bugs and their meanings. We use math all the time, when we go shopping we add up what we are purchacing. sharing skills, cooking and cleaning up skills, manners and talking about our feelings! Just little things like that - I've enjoyed this summer, all the camping trips, lake trips, hiking or park days! The one on one's with my girls, swimming lessons, all of it! And I can't wait for next summer to do it all over again :)
School season starts back up August 12th and the girls are really excited for that - Kassidee will be my BIG 3rd grader and Maddison, my baby starting the BIG Kindergarten. I am also getting excited, because I'll get the opportunity to be room mom again for both of them. Get to know the teachers and watch the girls find new friends. I love to be involved in our schools and with my kids! I am very blessed and lucky that I get to stay home and have these opportunities!
