Summer is quickly coming to a close. School starts on Wed. It seems just like yesterday that I was scrambling to change my daily schedule so that the kids could enjoy the summer. I must say that it didn't go quite as I had planned. I wanted to work on some projects with the kids like having the girls sew skirts, all of us going thru the boxes of pics, painting headboards for the girls bedroom, etc. We didn't do any of those things. But one thing did get done that was on the list-staining the playground. Jacob did that and I paid him. Most of all we had a good summer. We visited my family in TX, spent time at the pool and friends' houses, went on hikes, shopping, attended church camps, conferences and EFY. I love that in the summer there is no real schedule for a while. Meals are whatever is in the fridge and bedtime is whenever you get tired. But I'm glad to get back to a rhythm of schedules. There is a comfort in order. Although i look forward to a more orderly house and few more hours of quiet, the kids will be missed. We had a lot of fun together.
