I'm not sure it's possible to add one more event to our current schedule. Andrew is in Kindergarten 5 days a week and Kaitlynn attends preschool 2 half days a week. We have gymnastics for her on Monday, Awanas for both kids on Wednesdays, one baseball game on a weeknight, one baseball practice on a weeknight, a baseball game every saturday, now church services on Sundays,. school events, volunteering, park playdates once a week and the occasional Mom's or Couple's Night Out.......throw in errands such as the bank, post office, grocery store and dry cleaners, doctors appointments, cleaning the house, working out each day, phone calls and don't forget quality family time..... And it feels like there isn't a second to spare!
This is the precise reason I am looking forward to summer. No school, no weeknight church classes, no gymnastics, no baseball practices/games... no nothing. (improper English, I know).........
But that just felt too weird!
So now it's swimming lessons 2 days a week, martial arts one day a week, maybe a few summer camps, possibly VBS and something that I haven't decided yet for my daughter. Throw in the free movies at Edwards, storytime, spray parks, playdates and the usual responsibilities..... plus a trip to Disneyland in May, San Diego in June, Crescent City in July and Pheonix in August... and where in the heck did summer go?
Wasn't it JUST starting? I feel like we always have to be on the move, and if I have just one day where we stay in the house to relax, I feel unaccomplished, irresponsible and just plain lazy.
It's a double-edged sword!
