JUNE...

I have a total love/hate relationship with the month of June!  It's an expensive month, it's a crazy busy month.  End of school, Fathers Day, 2 birthdays in my immediate family, a baby dedication, small group year end, just to name a FEW!!!

I have been counting down the days of school since the beginning of May... I am one of those totally crazy weirdo moms that LOVE having my kids home!  I miss them... they leave me every morning at 7:05am to catch the bus and I don't see them again until a few minutes before 3:30pm.  I want them home.  I don't want to set the alarm.  I want to go to parks and play.  I want to swim at least once this summer.  I want to play after dinner and not be the fun ruiner telling everyone to go to bed.  I.Can't.Wait!

And I don't know about you but EVERYTHING happens in the last month of school.  Field trips, special lunches, fun days, birthday parties... I'm gonna need the break just as much as the kids do ;)
But every morning when my stupid trusty alarm clock goes off, I get my butt out of bed, rub my teeny tiny eyes and coax them to open, make my kiddies some breakfast and remind myself... 8 more mornings... 7 more mornings... 6 more mornings... I CAN DO THIS!!!  (if you haven't already figured this out I am soooo not a morning person, Jarno is enough of an MP for the both of us)

I love that the evenings are light late and I'm hoping for some real nice weather for at least a couple of weeks this summer... fingers crossed.

In the meantime, I will keep positive and find creative ways for my kids to have some fun...

Today's activity is 6 rubber gloves (from dollar store) filled with water (from the tap) a trampoline (from the trampoline place in Chilliwack) and a neighbour boy (from across the street)... you'd think these kids were at Disneyland!  Have I mentioned how much I love my kids?

How do YOU feel about June?
