5 Minute Friday

I'm going to force myself to write this morning just a little bit and Gypsy Mama has given me the 5 Minute Friday prompt.  Head on over there for a beautiful blog and a chance to win a prize.
Ready, Steady, GO!

When Seasons Change

I am ready.  
Breaking my life into 2 semesters and a summer based on the school/ teaching schedule has me very happy about this time of year.  I am ready to have a more flexible time with the kids, the house and the husband.  I gleefully spend a couple of weeks praying, devising options, anticipating our summer break.  How much traveling?  How much running around?  How much downtime?  How many books can we read? Can we get all our stuff done in the mornings so we can delight in the long afternoons and lazy play outside evenings? Or should be have leisurely mornings of chalk sidewalks and coffee?  When do we visit friends?  When do we swim?  Library? Camps? 
yup.  Ready.

Good for you -- preparing for the summer makes it more likely that you'll all enjoy the summer! Don't forget to factor in some grandma time ;)
