Played Hooky!

We played hooky Monday and headed off to the local waterpark! Since public school has started there wasn't any crowds and we had a blast! Everybody needs a day to play hooky. My kids thought I was the greatest mom!

Today was back to routine. MP did extra math work just because he wanted too. I almost fell out of my chair. CP is doing a great job learning new words everyday. She still ask at least 3 times during school time "Is it playtime yet?" She still remembers kindergarten having a playtime. I tell her if she went to regular school there would not be any playtime in 1st grade. So when I am working one on one with Micah, I give her that "playtime" she wants.

My oldest called me from college today. For money of course! He has a sore thoat, I hope he is getting enough sleep. Today was the 2nd day of fall classes. He tells me all his teachers seem decent so far. Books are a fortune, we are finding out.

His job is not working out. Too far, too much gas and there is tollbooths that add up the cost. So far I think the job is costing ME! I told him to find a job closer to campus.

We went to Park Day today. MP is finally making friends. CP had fun with her new friends too. Mommy had a nice time sharing with other moms too. It is kind of my Park Day too.

Posted by blessed2bamommy

I love going out to do things once everyone is in school. We are going on vacation the first of Sept. :-)

I imagine the water park was MUCH fun. My children would have enjoyed that too.
Praising Him,
Kim
