Boredom, squabbling, and more

We look forward to summer time all year long because we love being together and having the freedom to do what we want and be schedule free. Then about a week into the summer break we realize why a schedule is a good thing.

My realization came while breaking up Amy and Kyra's tug of war fight over a princess book, Tara's whining about there being nothing to do and everything is so boring, and Ian trying to super-glue his only trophy back together without parental supervision (side note: super glue and formica countertops aren't friends.)

I looked around thinking what in heaven's name is next?

Then Eric walked up to me, gave me a hug and this card.




Thank you, Eric. I think you're pretty out of this world too!

He sure lives up to the role he's been given as peacemaker, doesn't he? What a sweet guy.
