TGIS

thank goodness it's school!

only 3 sleeps, people! one more weekend, and then...SCHOOL DAYS! GLORIOUS, LIBERATING SCHOOL DAYS! we have met the teachers, bought the supplies, gotten new shoes, and all now even meg is chomping at the bit! oh, sweet school...

of course, talk to me in 3 weeks when kyra is crying over an hour & a half of homework (elementary school has gotten hardcore since i was a kid!) and meg is doing her homework half-assed because she is lazy, and i am trying to encourage them both while i do the dishes and sign permission slips and remind them to practice piano and answer the phone simultaneously. the hours between 4:30 & 7:30 are my least favorite/most stressful of the school year.

but lets not go there yet - 3 SLEEPS TIL SCHOOL!

If I had such a strange chore as practicing the piano and answering the phone simultaneously, I feel like it would be memorable and I wouldn't need to be reminded....

I wonder what it will feel like to be on the mom side of the school journey. Now, I'm the one they come to!
