Final Summer Fun













School starts on Monday for Sarah and I. That means summer is over for our family. Where did it go? I didn't get ANY of the things done I planned on doing. My closet still needs a good cleaning out, Analiese's room hasn't been painted, the photos haven't been put into the albums, we didn't get to see ALL of the movies we wanted and we certainly haven't spent the time we planned at the pool!

Of course we did get to Disney World, St. Louis, Maggie Moos, Brusters and the movie theatre. The girls had sleepovers, slept late and stayed up way past their normal bedtime. Sarah and Analiese went to dance camp while Grace enjoyed going to the gym every day.

Our family had the time to find our new normal and Matthew has found his place in his new family. God's plan unfolded and once again, his plan IS the best plan for all of us.

So, with the last week of our summer looming the girls and I went to Target to do some shopping. There we found a slip and slide on the clearance shelf and decided that was exactly what we needed to help celebrate our last days. The girls had a great time and I laughed and laughed as I got soaked trying to take that "perfect photo"!

I am so glad that my job allows me to be home with the kids! I am not going to get (financially) rich working in education but I wouldn't trade my job for anything! The time I get to spend with the kids is so precious and priceless.

In retrospect I DID get done what I planned this summer--I spent it with my kids and had a great time! Imagine that...
