The countdown begins

There are 4 days of school left. Sigh. I have mixed emotions about school letting out. I am excited. I love summer! My kids and I have so much fun and it's definitely nice to be lazy and carefree. I am frustrated. Well, I'm not yet but I will be. I guarantee the first week of summer will begin each day with "I WANT MY BUS! I WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL!" And just when he's finally figured out that there is no school...summer school will start. Then we get to start the whole process over. I am relieved. No school means no Garrett and Devin since their mom is a teacher. It will be so nice not to have to haul an infant every where I go. There really is a good reason I'm done having kids. I can handle the infants on a limited time basis only. I am nervous. No school and no Garrett and Devin mean less pay. Gas is $3.79 a gallon. Need I say more? I am exhausted. Even just thinking about all the activities, play dates and late nights makes me tired. Add into that some serious training for marathon and well, I'll need a nap. I'll also need lots of diet coke, lots of friends to lean on and maybe a good psychiatrist! Welcome to summer.
