Summer Fun!
We have been extremely busy with all the different summer activities our family has been involved in. This summer the kids went to 3 Vacation Bible Camps, 1 Day Camp, 2 sets of swimming lessons, Soccer Camp, Flag Football Camp, and Little Guards. Not to mentions park days, beach days, swim days and of course Boardwalk days! We have yet to have gone on vacation! Soon we will be going on our annual camping trip to Pinecrest Lake. We can hardly wait! Thankfully since the theft of all our camping gear we have been able to replace almost everything and what we don't have our gracious friends will supply :) I am looking forward to getting away for a few days and clearing my head and the heads of my family! In just a few short weeks all minus me, will be back in school and a new routine will begin. Part of me can hardly wait, longing for sitting on the couch staring out the window, drinking coffee in the peace and quiet of our home...Well we know how long that will last...wishful thinking. I am pretty sure our summer was busier then the school year. This is the first week of the summer we have had nothing structured to do, at first it seemed really nice but here it is only on day two and my kids with all their energy remind me why we have kept them busy all summer long! We have watched tv, played games, video games too of course and rode lots of bikes but it's not quite the same as being out and about. For some odd reason I thrive when being booked solid and apparently my kids do too. Next summer tho I do not think we will do so much, or so that is what I say now while being burnt out.
Respect is earned not given or demanded
On this day I'll give out grace because grace is a gift that can be given freely and you don't have to earn it let alone really deserve it.
