Schools out.

Today is the last day of the school year. When we get to the end of the year, it just seems as though the year flew away. My children will be on vacation for two months now and then on September 2nd they will be going into grade 2 and grade 5.Two months sounds like a long time but it really goes very quickly. My children work very hard in the school year and are in a very strict and rigid routine in the school year that in the summer I am more than happy to let them relax, have fun and enjoy being kids. Summer camp is very expensive, so they will only be going to camp for a short period of time and the rest of the time they will be staying with me and my daycare that I work with and my hubby and I are taking time off in the summer too. So it will be a great summer.

I always feel a little emotional at this time of year as I watch how much my children grow, mature and blossom during the school year. Both my children and I also have had a wonderful relationship with their teachers and I am always quite sad to say goodbye at the end of the year. So far this year as for the weather, it has been terrible, we have had so much rain and so many lighting storms and after a really hard winter of tons of snow, I am really wishing for some sunny days. Anyway hopefully it will get better and my kids will have a chance to ride their bikes and go to the park and fun things like that.

I would like to wish all the bloggers and their children a wonderful and safe summer. Make the most of the outdoors.

Some countries, the school year goes through the whole calendar year and it does seem strange to them that we have ended our year already. Anyway it wonderful for us and a good break for all of us, especially that for 2 months, i don’t have to pack school lunches and over see homeowrk everyday as well as work, so it gives mom’s a bit of a breather.

I’m glad school holiday is over and the kids are back at school.

2 kids together can turn the house into a war zone. lol..

at least theres a few hours of peace and quiet.

I love the long summer vacation in north America over here and to be honest with two school age children it gives me a great break from overseeing homework and school lunches and things.
