the endless summer...

Oh how I wish it was. One of the GREAT things about being a teacher: the summer vacation! The bad thing: having to go back to work and not being with my babies all day. Every August I get super sad and wish I could stay home. Oliver and Lennon drive me crazy sometimes, but I LOVE them dearly and love the time we spend together over the summer. Oliver becomes so attached to us and he really resists going to school or elsewhere. Today when Michael left for work, Oliver cried and told him"No work daddy!" Poor guy. Tomorrow I go back, but I am thankful that this year my kids will be watched by my mom and mother-in-law. I thought the older they got, the easier it would be to leave them - NOT TRUE! It's just as hard as the first day we had to leave Oliver in daycare. It broke our hearts and it still does. Guess I need to win the lotto...
