This past week was sooooooo long. I'll be honest, as we were just an hour away from the band overnighter ending yesterday morning, I felt this huge sense of accomplishment, although the overnighter deserves (no, actually needs) its own post. As does the swim championships from this week, which involved much more time than originally expected. I promise these posts will be forthcoming!
Band camp was every bit as crazy as we expected it to be, but I sure do enjoy those kids. We have a tremendous group this year, and I especially enjoy the freshmen group. The down side of the week is that when I wasn't at band camp or at the pool, I was still home doing band paperwork. It was pretty much all-consuming. But we made it!
We also received Robert's personal items earlier in the week. Everything on him had to be returned, with the exception of his wallet. Yesterday we finally received the paperwork with his address. I sent him a quick note because it was already getting late in the day and I wanted it to go out in yesterday's mail. I promised I would write more soon.
School begins in 18 days. This has definitely been the fastest summer yet. I look back on how quickly the high school years went with Robert (although with some of his decisions it felt like they lasted forever) and I know in a blink of an eye Thomas will be finished as well. Catherine is already half way done with her high school career. Wow, just wow. It's so true that the days may be long but the years are so very short!
