“Feels like summer break”
Yesterday, the girls found themselves at a place they haven’t been to much lately: school! Between our trip to DC, school closures due to the terrible air quality and the Thanksgiving break, the girls have had a total two days of school in the last three weeks. Their time off seemed so long that Avery commented to me last week, “It feels like it’s summer break!”
I, of course, loved having them around. Yes, they did get a bit stir-crazy at times (especially on those days when we couldn’t leave the house) and have been bickering more than usual, but with them home it felt like every day was a Saturday or Sunday. And I found myself feeling lonely when I telecommuted (in a very quiet house) yesterday.
Oh, well – the winter break will be here before we know it!
