So long summer!!


I cannot believe that school starts in less than two weeks. The summer just flew by. We are ready though...I think. Its time to start back on our schedule of waking up at 7:00 am and to bed by 9:00 pm. Right now we are going to bed at 11:00 pm sometimes midnight and waking up at 8:30 or 9:00. That is not the only thing that is going to be a challenge as the school year starts. Homework will be big challenge for me and the kids. I am taking 15 credits this semester. The most I have ever taken. This includes math, chemistry, history, and diversity!!! I hope I can do it. I hope I can manage my stuff and the kids at the same time this year. Last year was a HUGE challenge for Preston. Not only was his behavior a problem but he failed almost everything which he has never done. AHHAHA!!! I hope his last year of elementary is better than last year. I am glad all the sixth grade teacher are veterans. I think the fact that Preston had a brand new teacher last year didn't help. He has been in counseling all summer and I think it has helped him. Its been hard for him since his dad re-married the evil step mom. (no really she is).


Well school shopping is finished and I think we are ready for the year to begin. We are saying so long to summer by going to Lagoon today. I surprised the kids with this. We were not going to go because we have done SO MUCH this year. But that is what free tickets are for and the only reason I am taking them. Well so long summer......its so sad to say...but I am ready for fall!!
