“The only reason for time is so everything doesn’t happen at once,” Einstein. Thank goodness for time then, because I wouldn’t be able to handle it if all of this growing up my kids are doing happened at one time…
My 3 little people are officially done with school for this year. If you have children, you really understand the meaning of the saying, “Time Flies.” This especially rings true when the school year comes to an end because it’s a huge reminder of the time already gone by. It’s super cliche, but it literally seems to be flying by. I am not sure where this year went – remember this posting back in August when they all first started school??
My goal this summer now that they will all be at home with me, is to soak them and this age in. Looking at all 3 of them today knowing this current school year is over and they’ll all have bigger responsibilities next year when it comes to growing up, life lessons, and of course harder academics, I want them to enjoy their break. I also want to be able to enjoy them since we’ll be having a lot of quality time together.
With all of this time together ALL day, I’m not sure how I’m going to juggle blogging, keeping up with my freelance business, and general house maintenance as easily as I did when they were all in school! However I do realize I’m lucky I’m going to get the opportunity to figure out how to do all of that at home with them this summer. It will certainly be a struggle and a bit chaotic at times, but I can’t wait. I appreciated this quote from mom of 2, Ivanka Trump, in a recent Redbook magazine issue about the working mother debate.
Who knows what the next 2 months of blogs will look like – so hang in there with me!! Maybe I will finally be able to train a photographer who can help me out with self portraits…and the man behind the camera will be 7 years old! Ha!!
If you’re a parent, how does the end of the school year affect you having the kids at home – glad, sad, sentimental, relieved, stressed?? Do you agree that time seems to be flying by?
