School has begun!

Am I just getting older or does each new school year make me more and more tired? I am exhausted and still two days more with new little kindergartners to work with . They are darling but the darling children I am missing are my own. I love summer too, as my friend Jamie wrote in her blog, because I get to have a schedule open wide to be with my boys. As the school year comes, I feel like I am fitting them in which is awful. I do love teaching but always feel guilty (as you wrote about too Jamie) as I try to pursue the things I love each day. Right now, as I blog, they are dumping every toy we own on the floor downstairs. But I don't care because I just want them to be happy this time of year....
