School Days

The first day of school really is magical.  I know some people love year round school, but I think September through June is perfect.  It gives our family time to enjoy the summer and each other.  And then right when you've had (ahem) just about enough of each other and too much freedom for your own good, September rolls back into town and whips you into shape.  Schedules and routines from here on out!  Or at least until June when we are ready for a dose of sunny, freedom filled days again.
