So, Wednesday of this past week was the final day of the school year. And I can't tell you how excited I am for August to be here. Now don't misunderstand, I love my little rabble-rousers. I mean, who else can I teach to rouse rabbles with the best of them, but I am already in need of a break. Somewhere without sun but with peace and quiet. Why no sun you ask? I will only say that the sun and I have a long standing agreement not to interfere with each others daily activities unless is it absolutely necessary. And that is all I'm going to say about that.
One of the popular outings for families such as mine is to take trips to the water (ocean, lake, river, what have you) but that usually involves voluntary exposure to sunlight, so I usually pass on that. That's not to say it won't happen, but those trips will be few and far between. Another option would be to visit family. But that would involve contact with family. With the exception of a few cousins and a very few awesome aunts, I don't want to see any of them any time soon.
Of course, what seems to be the popular thing to do is to send them to every Vacation Bible School imaginable. A lot of parents seem to do this. Good for them I say, but it's not for me. I have no objections of them going to church, don't get me wrong. But I would rather it not be forced upon them like it is so many others. Just my thoughts anyway.
Well, I shall be thinking about ways to keep us entertained and perhaps living until August. That's the goal anyway. If you have any ideas, please share. I am more than willing to hear them.
