Summer: Day 2

Since we went away for the weekend right after they got out of school, yesterday was officially the 1st day of summer. It was great not having to come home from the gym (I teach at 6 am on Mondays) and wake the girls up for school. I walked in the door - they were already up. So much for sleeping in. Field Hockey camp started for my oldest so we were out the door before 9 am. Went to the grocery store with the other 2, and it wasn't so bad. No forced purchases of candy or soda! Came home and my oldest went to a friend's house. I did not see her until 5:30 pm. She is so social right now. It makes me a little sad. I like when they are where I can see them every now and then. I prayed for her independence and now that she has it, I want her back. She went from being a kid to a preteen overnight. My other two played with their best friend, Cori, at her house and then here. They also included the 4 1/2 year old twin boys next store in their escapades. They were outside all day! I however was inside trying to get my house together. I think I forgot to clean it the last month of school. It was gross! I have only partially finished the first level. Only 3 more to go. Now that the attic (our new master suite) is done I have more to clean! I am not going to complain b/c I love our new bedroom. So peaceful to finally have our own space. Todays agenda: clean the attic, and get ready to paint Josie's room. Lots to do this summer! Hope I take time to enjoy it!
