it's almost time...

today is our boys' last day of summer.  tonight we go to school to unpack supplies & see their classmates & teachers.  I'm up to my ears in school supplies & just trying to keep Lydie from using them all {she gets it honest}.  I have to admit I had a little sad moment this morning when Evan came downstairs & I gave him a good morning hug.  guess I was thinking about from here on out, it won't be the relaxed, lazy mornings we've enjoyed the last few months, but the rush of getting everyone fed, dressed & out the door on time so the bus doesn't leave them behind.  for as much as they might have annoyed or made me think I couldn't wait for school to start again, I have to say I've loved having all my kids home with me this summer.  The house was messier & noisier, but I've enjoyed their company & it's been a pretty nice change from previous years.  I'll be enjoying days again with just me & the little miss, but she'll be at school 3 mornings a week starting next week too.  I guess I'll use that time to power out some work so I can spend some valuable time with the kids when they get off the bus.  the weather the last few days has me craving fall... I can't wait for more fall weather & all the changes that go along with it {like new cute clothes for us all}!
