September also brings back joyful things. Seeing your friends again, and spending all your time with them. Many of the extracurricular activities would begin anew. Plus, learning wasn't such a bad thing. I became a better student as the years went on. Listening to the undergraduate, and graduate opportunities out there right now, I often wish I could go back to university. Ah, if I had lots of money, it would be spent on travel, and learning.
I sit here writing, listening to the geese fly by, a sure sign of fall coming, but I am still in denial. This was such a great summer. I really had a fun time with my family, and was able to visit with friends I had not seen in some time. I met my twin nephews again, after well over a year, and they've grown so much. My kids are getting older, and it is certainly more fun hanging out with them. The past two months have been great for our family, and I will miss the freedom of summer. Really, school is only a day away? The weather is not helping to convince me.
Tomorrow we spend one last day together for the summer of 2012. If the world is supposed to end this year, at least we had a wonderful summer to finish it off! On Tuesday, the dreaded lunch making begins again. I must say, this is my new anxiety at the start of school. What will my daughter eat all day? I won a cookbook all about portable lunches, so I am going to try some recipes, and we shall see how it goes. I am also trying to get her to sleep sooner, instead of reading books until late, in an effort to make mornings easier. My kids were often up at 6am this summer, but once school starts, they just want to sleep in.
Have a happy Labour Day. We will see you at school on Tuesday.
