Ahhh. Summer.

Now that we have a couple weeks of summer under our belts, I thought I would let you all know how awsome ours has been. Of course it's been great. Everyone knows my favorite thing to do is to be trapped in the house with all 4 of the kids for 10 weeks. Hopefully yours is going along as well as ours. But, if you're not sure, I have jotted down a few things that I have noticed along the way to help you out. Not from my experience obviously. Someone else's.

8 signs you and/or your children might not make it to the end of summer:

-You're pretty sure someone has tacked on at least 3 more days at the end of the week to make it longer.

-You've managed to spend more than the GNP of Zimbabwe consuming Pepsi/Coke products.

-Your children think you've developed chronic diarrhea because they have found you locked in the bathroom at least four times before lunch.

-You've already pulled into a gas station and told at least 50% of your children to get out of the *#@&*#@!! car and find another way home.

-You start to think your homeschooling neighbor isn't just someone who makes "interesting choices" but seems to be a dangerous lunatic that should be avoided and needs to seek immediate mental help.

-Even your backfat thinks you've been eating way too much chocolate for breakfast.

-You fall down more than twice while putting on your pants due to the fact that you've been getting dressed in the closet with the door shut so your kids can't tell if you're awake.

-You feign a knee/hip/ankle injury so that you have a legitimate reason not to investigate where all of the screaming is coming from. Again.
