We are ready!

I'm drowning a little bit. Drowning in 'Mom, I want a snack' and 'Mom, she was being mean to me' and 'Mom, I can't find my shoes'. Is it wrong for a mom to be so excited for school to start?

School starts tomorrow... yes, tomorrow, and ALL of us can hardly wait. The girls were saying yesterday, 'Why does summer have to be so long?' And although it seems like we're going back early we HAVE been out for a long time... 10 1/2 weeks of sleeping in, swimming lessons, family vacations, birthday parties, fun play dates, summer points charts, staying up late, fun visitors, BBQs and yummy margaritas and all kinds of summer fun. So it's no wonder we are all ready to get back into a schedule. Going to bed early, starting some extra curricular activities, practicing piano, doing homework, getting up early, re-starting a budget, exercising, reading scriptures before school, and did I mention going to bed earlier? Sounds like a plan.

Most likely I will still be drowning in 'Mom, I can't find my shoes' and 'Mom, where's my homework?' but with four kids gone all day, I'm hoping I'll be able to handle it.
