Posted on | June 26, 2010 | 3 Comments
I’ve been thinking a lot about how I’m going to survive this summer and how my kids are going to survive this summer and how, optimally, hopefully, we’ll do it with a bit of grace and perhaps even some pizazz.

LOVE this! summer is so hard for us … the lack of the usual routine, the HEAT (it has been around 98 with a heat index of about 115 for the last few days!). it makes it hard to keep them busy … the days are sooo long. i love the idea of giving bean chores … i think i will try this with porter … i think he will appreciate the responsibility.

I just discovered your site when we both commented on Nikki’s Fridaville blog.

Look forward to reading more!
