Much to my surprise, this summer looks like it will be the summer all three of the kids are back home. This is fine as my husband and I have always believed if they can live here while they find solid employment, then great. Kid #1 has paid off all student loans and is going to work on a master's degree. Kid #2 is moving back home after working 2 years post-college at a job that didn't pay enough to live on, but was in his field, and Kid #3 just graduated.
I don't regret moving out when i did, but in hindsight, I should have lived at home after high school.
This week is our last week of school. Will be sad to see my little nuggets finish the year? No. Will I think of them fondly from time to time over the summer? Yes. Will I run into them over the summer break? Possibly!
Another week of reading and writing for me. This week I read a very good YA book. I think it is also appropriate for 6th grade and above. If you have a young person in your life, pick this book up for them!
It is an odd season, to be sure. Our 23-year old daughter is renting with friends and our 21-year-old son is in college (he took 3 years off), working full-time and is living with us. It is SO hard for them to think about leaving right after high school like we did. Everything is so much more expensive.
ReplyDeleteI remember my delight at the end of the school year, when I knew I had the summer ahead of me to rest and revitalise! It will be lovely to have the children all back at home - especially as they are of an age when they begin to go their own way. Have a great week:).
ReplyDeleteThat will be interesting having them all at home. Do you still have that many bedrooms? It's an opportunity so enjoy.

Blood in the Water looks good. Sounds like you will be busy this summer. Hope you have a great week!
