So long summer!

This summer was good to us.  So many fun days to look back on (thanks to Instagram!) but I have to admit even though I'm a California girl, I'm looking forward to wearing jeans again. Of course with flip flops.

Hudson's 1st day of Pre-K starts on Monday and I am so excited for him.  I see so many moms just in tears over their kids going to school (which is fine) but I'm not (that's fine too, right?).  The whole getting older and more independent thing is rough but I am genuinely loving the fact that he will get some alone time and meet new friends. I will miss him while he is gone 3 hours every morning but I can't wait to hear how his day went and what he and his new friends did at school.  I bet when he starts Kindergarten next year I will probably be crying big fat crocodile tears.

Parker will continue to go to his speech therapy and I'm looking forward to some much needed one-on-one time with him.  I plan on taking him to story time at the local library, park dates and possibly taking an art class with him.  I'm not sure how he's going to be with his brother gone at school 5 days a week (he just went 2 days last year).

I'm so ready to have a routine again.  This summer was a blast but I need some structure around here!

So tell me, did you shed a few tears on your child's first day of school?
