only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.
On the one hand, I love when school is out because I really really do love having the kids home all summer. I think I hate school more than they do. I had kids because I like kids so yeah, I want them home.
On the other hand, when school is out I end up with stacks and stacks of papers and books, piles of backpacks and boxes of crayons, cheap pens and pencils, rulers and all sorts of other supplies. I always put them in a safe place so we’ll have them for next year. And then I forget where that safe place is. So we have to buy new stuff in August.
Someday when my husband and I both die, our kids will have to clean out our house to sell it. In the process, someone will discover a treasure trove of school supplies. If my kids are like me at all, they’ll take those school supplies home to put them someplace safe until they need them. And then they’ll forget where that safe place is.
Thus begins another family tradition.
