Summer time, and the livin’ is… easy?

That depends, I suppose. We were supposed to be participating in a summer day camp program this year. The administrator lost some of my paperwork, lied to me, and her assistant snapped at me. Therefore, my children were withdrawn. You can’t keep my paperwork together, and I should trust you with my kids? No, thanks. We’ll figure something out. We’ve been doing okay so far.

My daughter leaves on a plane trip to Minnesota to visit my brother tomorrow. She’s traveling with my mother, and this is her first plane trip. TELL ME EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY, PLEASE! She’s so excited it is just adorable. On top of the excitement, her father got her a $50 American Express Cash Card today. She thinks she’s Princess Caroline, I think.

In the meantime, her brother and I will commence our daily routine as we usually do. We do have a kayaking trip planned Friday. I’ll probably get to answer a lot more of those classic little boy questions, like:

“Mom, when I get big, can you take me to a volcano?”
