We have a full, but short summer planned. Swim team practice starts at the YMCA in late May. We go to Oregon in June. We swim and hang out at home in July. It is all over in August when Lorena, Kelly, and Christian start school. My goal for the summer is to read a few books, do a little exercise, write a little code, and just enjoy the summer without the need to do our annual book purchase and year-long homeschool planning. We still have to sign up for classes, but that is easier than developing a lesson plan and buying materials for an entire year worth of teaching. After eight years of homeschool this is a new thing for me. I LOVED doing that, so I will miss it, but it is nice to have a break, too.
