I am still in denial that school starts
tomorrow. The whines are already being heard around the house. “I am not ready.
I have more to do. I didn’t play enough. I didn’t go to beach enough. I wasn’t
able to have as many fun days as I wanted. I am scared that I may not know
enough to do well this year. What if no one wants to be my friend this year and
come over and play? I am not ready for homework and reports and projects! What
if I don’t have everything that I was supposed to have for the first day of
school??” And those are just comments by me. The kids are fine. Yes, I am
obsessing. Yes, I am worrying way more than I need to. And yes, I need a life.
No wait…I need more summer!
