I have so many emotions now that summer is coming to a close. With all of the lasts and firsts jumbled together, I’m a hot mess inside, does anyone else have these problems?
Emotion #1
First, my baby had his first week of Kindergarten, how in the world did that happen? Watching him hang his book bag, enter the classroom and find his desk is so exciting but also makes me sad that he's growing up. Five years have flown by and gone are our Friday mommy days.
How in the world are moms with seniors dealing with the first week of school??? Or with teenagers it's different and you can't wait to get them out of the house? Fill me in pleeeaaase!
Emotion #2
My second baby, Piper is starting to learn basic words… or maybe they’re just mom words “words only a mother understands” but to me, it’s still words. I LOVE watching her learn new things, the other day she was playing peek-a-boo with herself in the mirror and I wished I had my phone on me to record it. For anyone questioning, if she's perfect (I feel like that's how it seems with her) it's not. She's officially figuring out what she wants and 5:00 hits and I'm basically not allowed to put her down unless I want her screaming at my legs. Welcome to the world of a 16-Month-old.
I’m thankful I have a flexible schedule where I can pop in and out for my kiddos appointments and activities.
Emotion #3
Summer is ending, I do LOVE fall but not so much what follows.
We had a great summer that went by way to fast. We didn’t do anything too crazy this summer, but we stayed busy on our acreage. Mowing takes 3 hours and I weirdly love it!! Being productive with earbuds in and not a care in the world. ;)
We took advantage of the Humboldt County Fair fun, went camping and kayaking plus had a family trip up to Minnesota. We were so lucky that the weather was amazing. Fishing, swimming, boating, and sandcastles plus cousin fun. It doesn’t get much better than that. :)
Email me or text me to tell me your top 2 favorite things you got to do this summer even if it was just chilling and enjoying being home. I LOVE hearing what your family has been up to. Or to make me feel better about my hot mess syndrome to let me know all your crazy feels.
Also, a reminder that I have 2 Fall Family Sessions left on a Saturday, September 28th at 3:00 and 5:00. For seniors, I have 7 openings for the Class of 2020. Don't miss out on your babies growing and changing.
