....Actually only 20 more days for O and myself, but E doesn't like to hear that. I'm telling you, E is more than ready for 2nd grade to be over. When I walked her to her classroom this morning, she actually cried like it was the first day of school.
"Hang in there and finish strong", I reminded her. I've said that a gazillion times over the past week. E is a straight-A student, but she is
burned out.As well as she does in school, you would think she would love it more. All last summer, when anyone would mention school, she would cringe. She doesn't like the schedule. She doesn't like the rigorous work. Yet, she never fails to give her absolute best.

I couldn't be more proud of her. But, my sweet girl is due for some lounge around, do-nothing time.
O, on the other hand, is wondering how her friends are going to make it without her all summer.
"They will miss me terribly", she says.

Ofcourse they will.

Finishing well is my goal too. I think I'm more burned out than my kiddos! But we're all juggling a lot of balls right now.
Hang in there. I mandate rest for the first full week of summer. Because we ALL need it!
Bless E's heart. I can relate. I am burned out on second grade right about now, too! I think we are all in need of a big dose of SUMMER!!
O is just a trip!!
"Of course they will!!" I could just eat her up :) That dimple is to die for!
And I'll pray for E's last month to go SWIFTLY ~
And by the way, your past few blogs have CRACKED ME UP!(...and I'm so glad Eric's home for your sweet sake :)

I used to teach pre-school and I loved my time off in the summer with my girls. I know you all are excited for school to be over. Love & blessings from NC!
