It’s a lot quieter when 75% of your children are not home all day. Definitely more than 75% quieter.
We’ve officially completed our first week of the new school year. Have had a few glitches here and there–my big ole talk apparently needs to slow cook a bit in their hearts (aka Drew’s heart). But, all in all, a good week for the 3 who being schooled 6 hours a day.
And, the other 25% ain’t doing too bad either.
It’s just the two of us now.
Walks are slower and a little less noisy (note: not slow and not noiseless).
And, we have been enjoying doing some fun things together that are a bit harder to do with the whole clan.
And, we’ve discovered that the hot dog game is really not so much fun with only 2 in the car (when we pass this gas station near our house, the last person to yell hot dog loses. The game is awesome when 6 people play–especially when our windows are open.)
Everyone is very happy about a 4-day weekend. In fact, they’ve been looking forward to this weekend since Labor Day last year. Young Life Family Camp, here we come.
