    Been there done that. This is my first summer without tearing my hair out. It's not that they stopped bickering, it's the fact that 4 of my kids aren't even home. My 17,13,11 and 9 year old have been visiting my mother in England all summer:happy: Which has left me with my 15 yr old and 6 yr old only. My house is so quiet...food bill went down. Electric bill cut in half. They come back on July 31. The younger kids start school Aug 6 and the older kids a month later. I prefer the year round school schedule but once they start 7th grade, it ends.

    Public school starts the end of august here.. but the christian school my kids will be going to doesn't start till after the holiday weekend in September. I have mixed feelings about it this year.. Yes my kids drive me nutty just like everyone else.. but I have homeschooled them for 3 yrs..so part of me will love not having to teach them....and another part of me will miss it sorely! This will be my 6 yr olds first time in school...ever..and already she is giving me gray hairs about it! Along with both my kids going to school I will also be having a pretty big change myself.....being home with my kids and babysitting for the last ten years..this will be the first time I will be working away from home..as a teacher's aid for a kindergarten class at my kids school...... I better make sure I pack plenty of tylenol! So...it's a big change for us all and I am grasping on to every day of summer like it's my last while I have it!
