There it was on my cell phone this morning, in black and white: AUG 1

Really? Is it August already? I was well aware that July was flying by, but still, AUG 1 really took me by surprise. This is the month Lily goes to first grade. This is the month Luke starts kindergarten. This is the month I have two school age children and no more babies at home. This is the month the alarm goes back to a 6 a.m. wake up. This is the month bedtime goes back to 7:30 p.m. giving David and the kids a grand total of ONE HOUR together each day. This is the month that "hurry up!" and "c'mon, c'mon, c'mon!" become the morning melody.
Big sigh.

Any chance I could start a petition for August to be on hold for a few weeks?

Anyone?

Bummer.
