School's Out

You don't really think about it when you're kids are going part-time, but going to school does take a big chunk out of your day. This becomes glaringly evident when school gets out, as it has recently. A's school year came to an end and suddenly we are not scrambling to get out the door in the AM. The kids have assorted camps and work endeavors, but on the whole life is a lot simpler. You realize how hard it is for parents over summer or during vacations, you really have to find things for your kids to do and ways to get them there.

Then, before you know it, school will be back in session. Then again, when you homeschool, what does that really mean? Just a quick note, A did very well in school, but I won't got too much into the details because it gets on my nerves when other parents do it, so I won't. She's taking a class over the summer and working so she'll be busy, it just won't have the stress that seems so inherent when school is in.
