Summer '10 Reflections

This has been the most amazing summer that I can ever remember. The kids are at such fun ages and you name it, we have done it. Looking back I only took Seth to the sitter once and Leah 3 times because I just didn't want to give them up for even a day. I have enjoyed each and every day with them and I am the luckiest woman ever to be able to have summers off to spend with them. It is time that I cherish. I am finding it very difficult to go back to work this year and haven't stepped foot in my classroom. I have a big task ahead of me tomorrow, but I just wanted to fit in every last bit of fun that I could before the dreaded routine starts again. I wanted to take a look back at our summer and reflect on all of our adventures.
