Missing Summer...

There are so many things to love about fall. The crisp air, changing colors, the overall general sense of preparing for winter. It is a productive time. I feel good about myself in the fall renewed committments, routine, and order.

Tonight, I am missing the carefree summer nights when the grill is on, the side walk chalk is out and there is time to play games before bed. Why, after such a long day of school do we have to spend so much of our together time studying? So they are up to speed the next day? For heaven sakes, the girls are only six and nine. GEEZ!

So tonight it was side walk chalk for 30 mins and this with a side of flank steak.

Take that FALL!

Then we buckled down finished piano, did our studies and read. Now they are asleep, hopefully reciting their math facts in their dreams.

I miss summer nights....
