Summer

Yesterday, I got to spend a wonderful summer day with my boys. Byron was golfing with a friend, so we declared it to be a "Mommy and Her Boys Day." We went to the pool, we rode bikes in the park, we got ice cream cones, we played games at home. It was great. It was about 90% fun and 10% whining. An extremely good day.

I've been so down lately, wanting to do more summer activities with the boys. So this was a much-needed day of fun for us all. Yay for summer. I'll be sad to see it end. School is starting up again all too soon (although at least our school, pre-school that is, will not be starting until after Labor Day, which is the way it should be in my opinion) and then next week, my boys are going to be off to college. Or at least that's how it feels. Time moves all too fast.

Good for you! I have been trying to pack lots of mommy and the boys days into our schedule, too! I am a teacher and I head back to work next week, and it is really starting to get me down. I'm glad you guys were able to get some fun time in!

Yes, they do grow up... way too fast! I get teary-eyed when I realize how much mine have grown.

I'm glad you got some good "fun" time with your boys. Hope you get a chance to do it again sometime soon!
