And so it begins.

Today is the last day of school for The Kid.  The summer officially begins!  

I may be just as excited as The Kid.  It will be so nice not to be tied to the school hours that impose rigid rise and bed times.  Plus, I'm so looking forward to having a break from the mad rush in the morning to get everyone out the door.  Most of all I'm looking forward to more time with the family.

I agree with Henry James: "Summer afternoon, summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language."

Just saying the word summer--the sigh of it--and the sky seems to open up bluer.

Of course, reading your post I'm also reminded of the lyrics to a favorite song: "School's out for summer! School's out forever!" Rock on Alice Cooper!

I hope the first day is fun!
love, Ka

Yay!! More time for Peanut Buster Parfaits. (aka,, the nut buster)

I always loved when my kids were out for summer. Everything was so laid back, no yelling at anyone about bedtime. It's the best.

Happy Summer..!
