Today was a weird day. It was the first day back to school after spring break. Normally, i'm not all that happy about a school vacation coming to an end. I like hanging out with my kids, for the first few days anyhow. I like not driving the to and from school, activities ect..... But today after I dropped them off it was like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders.
I came home and promptly got more accomplished in one hour than I did the whole past week. There was no bickering. No "mom, what is there for breakfast?". Um, the same thing there is everyday? No lazy butt pre-tweens slouching on the couch expecting me to wait on them hand and foot. Not that I actually do wait on them, but when I say no, or do it yourself, I am met with "oh my God mom, you are sooo mean"or "That is so unfair!". "AAALLLEEEXXX I HATE YOU!!!" (Emily says that about 28 times a day)
When did my children become so demanding and lazy?
Today there was peace and quiet. Summer break should be fun. I'm researching summer camps asap.
