It can't be time already!

Summer has gone by so quickly. My kiddos are starting back to school today. Last night at the parent meeting I could feel the sadness kick in. It is overwhelming for me the first couple of days of school. I love summer and the freedom of no homework, less of a schedule, eat when we are hungry, read when we want not because we have too and lots of extra time with my babes. I could feel the agony starting when I was listening to the teachers talking about the fun and exciting things my children were about to do! I wanted to scream NO I'm not ready yet...I need another month!

I echo every emotion and thought!! I just hope my kids don't see it too much because I want them to be excited for school... it didn't help when I started crying during the morning prayer on the first day of school. Have someone else say the family prayer the first day....

I feel the very same way. I am in a funk.

Amen and Amen. I am trying to hide it, but I think I am failing miserably.
