L'été a commencé
Summer's here. The weather has been what I call warm. Most people around here are saying "hot", but I just can't, not yet. The humidity has been pretty low still, and until that peaks and stays around 90%, it's not really summer yet!
Schools are out soon. All the kids are very excited, excpet the high schoolers, who are finishing their finals. Several of my teens are taking finals for the first time, this being their freshman year. I find that hard to believe, remembering how I took my first final in the 3rd grade. More & more I learn to appreciate the rigorous & thorough cirriculum I had as a child.
But what really makes it feel like summer are the following things:
I'm wearing my skirts again! ^.^
I have lettuce & tomatoes outside (in pots, of course, not enough room for a garden)
There are no more lessons for me to do with the youth on Wednesday nights. We will finish the series tonight. That makes me happy because of the small break, but the kids are sad. Oh, well, it's not that much longer until camp in June. That'll make up for it, I hope!
