It sure does not feel like a "break" when you are a stay at home Momma of four...
Nor can we seem to catch a "break" lately...
But, I am FINISHED complaining - it never helps anything. Well, it may make mefeel better for a minute (haha) but afterward, the problem(s) is/are still there anyway, right?
-----------------------------------
Summer break also means lots of pool time, hanging out down at the creek, playing outside, little day trips, heading to the lake & camping...all of which we have been busy doing so far this summer. We are also quickly approaching Zander's birthday - he will be FIVE next Friday, which I just can not seem to believe.
Next week is also our VBA at church, and I am helping with the 4 yr old group (I always do Zander's age) which will be fun/crazy/exhausting, but I keep doing it each year, so I really do enjoy it :)
Ava has become all that "terrible two" could possibly mean. She is such a handful, and she makes (huge/strange) messes everywhere she goes. She LOVES to dump things, and seems to do it at least once a day with something full that makes a huge mess. I have never met another child like her, the girl seems to just hop from place to place leaving a trail of destruction - ugh!
The rest of the kids are doing well, just growing up way too quickly. I miss the days of having a house full of preschoolers, doing crafts, lounging together reading books or watching tv. Now my days are already full of phone calls & requests for friends to sleepover. They want to have friends over or go to friend's houses everyday. Oh, how I want my little kids BACK!
Time just flies right by though - Kaden just informed me the other day that he will graduate in 8 more years...do you know how fast that will be here? Before I know it, I am sure...
I think Hannah and Ava are twins separated at birth, lol!

You ARE still around!
I can't believe our little boys are going to be 5. I don't even want to think about high school graduation!
