Summer Is Coming

My kids have exactly 3 hours of school left in the 2015-2016 school year. That means Summer Break begins at 12:01pm tomorrow afternoon.

Summer break this year is most likely going to be anything other than restful. With my son’s anxiety levels as high as they are right now, and potential triggers for panic attacks lurking almost everywhere, he doesn’t feel like he “can” or “wants to” do any day camps. He just wants to stay home. And I get that.

But then there is my daughter who wants to do everything, and not miss out an anything. And I also get that.

And then there is the fact that my Vacation Bible School is the first week of August, so the next 6 weeks are actually one of my busiest work seasons.

So right now I feel like this…

But I am trying really hard to remain positive, and flexible, and optimistic. Hopefully most days I can be more like this…

Because whether I am ready for it or not…Summer officially starts tomorrow at 12:01pm!
