I would say it was a good summer. We did some of this:
...and some of this:
...and a lot of this:
And we ended our summer with Zachary doing this:
Someone mentioned to me yesterday that he'll be in high school next year. I got a little choked up about that. Not about him being in high school but rather by how quickly it has happened. The first day of school always brings with it a wave of emotions. It's exciting to look toward the future, anything is possible on the first day of school. It's also, so bittersweet to look at the past. I remember his first day of kindergarten like it was yesterday. I didn't cry the first day, I cried a week later when the parents were met at the door and not let into the class room. I didn't cry yesterday when he got on the bus, but my eyes welled up later when I watched him walk up the driveway by himself. Each new school year brings a new, larger step towards independence. It won't be long until we're taking Zachary to college or Piper is starting kindergarten. Until then, I hope we can continue to have fun summers full of memories. :)
