Over the last two weeks the transition from school year to summer has been fun, if exhausting. I forgot how much work it is staying home with my children. But maybe that’s because I find myself trying to fill our time and space together with activities! And outtings! And fun! And…I’m exhausted. I need to just be with them. Sometimes not planning needs to be the plan.
I SO know how you feel! I hope you take some time to just enjoy them–I know I need to!
Amy, I’m learning that the easiest things to do to have connections with our kids are often the simplest. I just have to remember that lesson. 🙂
It’s so true, you think summer will be relaxing, but keeping the little ones busy or out of your hair can take a lot out of you. Soon we’ll be looking forward to school to start…
That’s definitely true. School will be starting before we know it. We need to soak up these Summer days while we can. 🙂
