The (Un)Official End is Here

Summertime is drawing to a close. At least in the crazy, hazy, lazy days kinda way. It's still hotter than ever, and probably will be for quite some time. Chloe had the time of her life this summer going on her first vacation, her first camping trip, her first real 4th of July celebration, her first T-ball class, trips to the beach and the zoo, and she FINALLY got to ride on a subway! It certainly did not disappoint. It was almost as good as her Chincoteague pony ride, every My Little Pony fan's dream! She has been one happy little girl. Since settling back into a home routine, she looks at our vacation photo album often, and loves to talk about the things we did, in a "Mommy remember when we...." fashion.

As we settle into our Autumnal routines, we are sure to have more fun and more memories to record. We will be starting preschool here at home. Chloe will be in a developmental soccer league at a nearby church. When the weather cools we will resume our almost daily picnic lunches at the park. The State Fair will be here before we know it, providing endless opportunities for fun memories. I am excited to see how much fun I can pack into this coming year, my last as a full-time caretaker of my precious little ones. Soon I will have to share the responsibility with others, and I am suddenly completely unhappy about the prospect.
