How am I supposed to feel this time of year? Happy? Sad? Excited? Is the school year simply ending or is the Summer just beginning? I never did deal with change very well and while I can’t wait to enjoy the Summer with my girls I can’t stand to see another school year tucked away. Everyone says it goes so fast…I just didn’t think it would be this fast! So tomorrow we start making our Summer of ‘08 memories…camps, trips, and lots of bonding. Before I know it I will be writing the opposite of this post and wondering where the Summer went.
I always like to do something out of the ordinary for the last day of school. Last year my neighbor and I spent hours filling water balloons- what a great surprise it was when they stepped off of the school bus and saw the big tub of water balloons. After all of the splashing I set up a gigantic ice cream sundae bar and we all gorged ourselves on sugar! I haven’t even decided what my big idea for this year will be - I guess I’m procrastinating because I just don’t want to face it right now. How do you celebrate the end of the school year? Do you have a special tradition? I would love to hear about it. If the sky was the limit here are some of my ideas….
Only $350 (including tax & delivery) for my very own water park?!
How about making soft serve ice cream at home?
A brand new dachshund puppy waiting for them at the bus stop would be awesome…(no offense Winnie…you would love her)…
So I will sit and ponder today…what will make their last day of school the best last day of school ever?
