When is Summer??

Packing lunches, ironing clothes, skating lessons, drop offs, neighbourhood hibernation
all of these things make me want summer back!

I miss the carefree days of waking up and wondering what we would do today: the beach, the library, playing with friends, plain old summer fun!

Owen has had a rocky start with his new school on his off days from kindergarten. It has been heartbreaking having him cry and worry about having to go. We thought he was missing his friends and old sitter, but today Owen was able to tell his teacher that he didn't like his new school because he didn't know what to do like at his regular school. It never once crossed my mind that after being in junior kindergarten for a year it might be difficult for him to settle into a montessori setting. Rest assured, after a very difficult morning, and Owen being carried in by his teacher, he as able to make a turn around and come home a happy boy! One great thing about his new school is "Comet" the gerbil or as Owen first called it "the german".
