Nineteen more

That's how many days of school are left for the kids, at least the older two. Little guy only has thirteen, which just seems impossible to believe. I think on some level, I'm looking more forward to the summer than they are. I've noticed, though, that the kids do seem to be wearing down as well. Right now our lives are pretty crazy with the ball schedules. I'm not complaining, it's just reality. JR still has at least an hour of homework every night, and at least two nights a week it's closer to two hours. Part of it is that his teacher does assign a little more than the other teachers, and part of it is the fact that he simply takes much longer to do his work. The kids all enjoy being at the ball park, but I've noticed that they really don't mind on the evenings when we have rainouts, even if it is their game being rained out. I think they enjoy the fact that we have a more relaxed dinner, and we might even get to play a game together as a family. I think we are looking forward to the more relaxed lifestyle that summer is going to bring!
