And while I’ve been enjoying the summer with them – I have, even thought they’ve been driving me bonkers at times – it’s going to be great to have them back in routines.
The oldest because she’s starting her new school tomorrow, and I’m actually looking forward to her making new friends and having kids to hang out with. And the 3 year old will start his kindergarten again, which means he’ll have kids to play with, activities that he’ll enjoy a whole lot more than the activities we’ve been able to provide here at home. We’re still in lockdown, basically, so in order to avoid getting sick we’ve been staying at home a lot, and the few times we have been out, we havent done much that means interaction with others. That’s been a huge bummer for the lad, so getting back in with other kindergarten kids will be fun for him. Especially the kids he was friends with before summer.
Then it’s only a few weeks before our youngest lad will start going to kindergarten too, the same as the older lad, only a different section. It’s going to be quite empty here at home, so it’ll be good for me to get out in any activity as well. Not sure how long I’ll have to wait though, but I’ll manage. If nothing else, I’ve got a couple of computer parts I can assemble to give the oldest an actual computer for school work. Or perhaps I’ll make it into a HTPC, not sure. All depending on how well that stuff has been holding up in the storage..
