What Spring Break Means to Me

• Packing lunches everyday for fieldtrip outings
• Kids at the beach everyday - translation "washing loads of towels everyday"
• No traffic! So I hear - I haven't had a chance to go anywhere.

These are the conversations (I use that word loosely) I've heard/had this Spring Break week with various children

Hannah
"What? Egg sandwich again?"

Michelle
"Can I stay up all night and watch my ipad?"
"But I don't have to wear school uniform shirt today" (My answer "Too bad - that's all that's clean...I've been too busy washing towels to wash clothes.")
"I have lots of new friends at my Spring Break Program." (Me -"Really, what's their names?") Her -"I don't know but their my best friends."

Gabe
"Mom, can I use the car?"
"Mom, can I use the car?"
"Mom, can I use the car?"
"Mom, can I use the car?"
"Mom, can I use the car?"

Gabe
"Can I have some money?"
"Can I have some money?"
"Can I have some money?"
"Can I have some money?"
"Can I have some money?"

Thank goodness today is the last day. I want to drive my car for a change, I am almost broke, we're out of bread and I need clean clothes!
