Wow is it hot! I am so glad the summer is almost over, just because of the heat!
The kids have been enjoying so much free time, spending their days doing projects together and sometimes going to the pool. Projects included weaving, bead pictures that are ironed to stay together, origami, and making jewelry. Lots of fun! But now it is time to prepare for school. Thank goodness the school sells those prepackaged supplies or we would be at the stores going crazy this weekend. I remember my school days and how my Mom had to wheel all six of us around to get school supplies. Poor Mom, she had to do so much work for us. Love you Mom!
Well, my oldest son will be in fourth this year and my daughter will be in Kindergarden. Only my toddler will be left at home during the day! I will be on my toes chasing him around, because he is a busy one! I am planing on pretty-much home-preschooling him like I did the other two. So far I have him doing action songs with me, looking at flashcards of pictures, and reading books. Action songs are his best subject so far, I am hoping he will get interested in the other activities as well.
My husband is still into photography and is getting itchy for a new camera already! I told him I would like him to keep the one he has, for at least a year. He is already talking me down though...so we will see.
I have be reading lots this year, especially this summer. I am looking forward to Book Club starting up again after school starts. I am enjoying being in my ward's Book Club and being exposed to new ideas, from the other ladies and the books we have read. Book Club also gives me a goal to actually finish a book. Some books start out slow so I don't know I would finish them if I didn't have to discuss them later. Plus I get girl time!--My husband takes the kids and I get time to relax and socialize. Love it!
Well, I hope everyone has had a great summer!
