The school year is rapidly coming to an end. I think I'm more excited than the kids. Helping five kids with homework every night is wearing on me. I'm tired of following rules. Even though I expect it from my children, I'm not good at it. I tend to blow off things that aren't important to me. Every summer I invest a great deal of time in educating my kids. We aren't doing that this year. The kids will be expected to read, and we will do some math, but mostly we are going to swim and hang out and be lazy!! I can't wait.

The kids are growing like crazy. In the fall, Angie will go to jr high, and Emi to Kindergarten. I may actually get my laundry done for the first time in 11 years. Well, not likely, since I'm taking classes.

I will post end of the year stuff next month.
