It Is Late July And Summer Vacation Starts Now

by

Today is the first day of the girls summer vacation/holiday. They get seven weeks off until school starts again in September.

This is one of those little things that are just a bit off in my universe and need adjustment. It’s late July and my kids were still in school until last Friday. Growing up for me school ended in June. The girls spent the Fourth of July at school. My memories of the Fourth of July is visions of watching fireworks at camp when i was old enough to goto sleep away canp or when i was working at one.

There’s arguments to be made for either system. I do not feel one is better or worse than the other. It’s just different enough that it takes getting use to. So here I am on 23rd of July and it’s the first day of my girls summer vacation.

I should either feel that i have failed as a parent that my kids are boobytrapping the house, or i should be proud of their skills at home security. Who am I kidding I am so proud.

A W Sisters Short – Illegal Immigration

by

Our oldest drew this picture today. As we were talking about how small the baby looked we compared it to how small her imaginary friend Doka was. I asked her were Doka was? If he had remained in NY. I was told he is still here and the man at the airport never found him in her ear. That lead us to discover her imaginary friend has been living in her ear illegally this whole time.

W Sister Shorts – Bedtime Kisses

I came home late tonight. I almost should’ve been sleeping however I was up and heard me. She came downstairs and insisted on a kiss good night. She gave me a kiss on the cheek and then proceeded to tell me that I need to shave since my cheek scratched her lip.

Apparently everyone is a critic.
