It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

I love that Staples commercial where the dad is skipping behind the shopping cart as that Christmas song is playing while the kids are scowling behind him.

That is how I feel this morning though. Although summer is fun, I have been looking forward to a schedule. The kids have had a kind of boring summer. Derek working, me in summer school plus the hot weather made for a lot of boring days where they would just get on each other's nerves. It will be nice to be back into a routine with bedtimes!!

Jerrod was pretty nervous for the past few days as he anticipated middle school. He has been talking about it for the last year but now that it was upon him the butterflies hit. Allison and Emma both woke up with a few butterflies themselves. We went and met their teachers on Friday and they seem very nice so I know that they will all have a great day.
