It feels like I live in two different worlds sometimes. September through May is all about home schooling. The summer months are about more time with daddy, the neighbours and friends finally out for summer vacation. We do see some hs friends in the summer but not as often. It will change a little next year when we become parents of one kid in and one kid out.
So far, we have enjoyed swimming in backyard pools. Running around outside from morning until dinner, riding bikes, having Lego battles on the lawn or playing freeze tag or hide and go seek. Last night we joined two other neighbours and their families to an outdoor movie screening by the lake. We have a camping trip coming up. A Blue Jays game with Grandpa. A few weekend sleepovers with family. It is relaxed, informal and unorganized. Aside from going to the Y, Thursday swimming lessons being our only scheduled activity, we play everything by ear.
It is nice. For a while. But, before long I will be chomping at the bit and start working on the Fall schedule and curriculum. As much as I love the down time, I find life soothingly stimulating when it all gets going again.
