Back to School: Back on Schedule

By the first day of school, I am beyond ready to be back on a schedule. The first month of summer break is not so bad because of band, orchestra, swim team, swim lessons, and softball. However, by middle of July, they are finishing up with their lessons and games. My girls lazy this summer.

Of course, I could not seem to get us back on schedule before school started. They were in bed the night before the first day of school by 7pm and we had a very successful first day of school this year. It doesn't take long for school to put the kids back on schedule. They are all so exhausted after school the first week or two they have no problem going to bed before the sun does.

With the first few days under the belt, I am gearing up for the first full week of school starting tomorrow. Now that the excitement of school starting and seeing friends is done; the kids have to get settled in to the routine. The second week is always worse than the first week, in my experience.
