Last Friday marked another end of the school year for us. I am so proud of the kids-they worked hard all year long.
So I had the bright idea of making a "Summer Bucket List." I asked all the kids to write down some things they want to do this summer (within reason) and I was surprised to find out that 2 of the 4 want a tree house/fort. Looks like I have some planning to do.
All of them listed going to play with new friends..hmmm..guess home school kids do socialize after all. They have followed the rules so far, I haven't gotten any weird requests like Disney or bungee jumping. Although my daughter did ask to go to some outdoor music festival that has several bands. Oh how I miss the days of Disney stars/shows. Now it is bands like Falling In Reverse and people who growl instead of sing. :/
So here is a toast (raises glass of tea) to the start of summer-Hot day, warm nights and the sounds of frogs and crickets!
I hope everyone enjoys a little safe fun this summer.
