I remember the bliss of end of year :) But I'd always manage to get a virus or 2 in the break and end up spending most of them in bed. But I'd be better for start of term!
Now I'm "retired" . I have huge amounts of respect for anyone who works and raises kids. Especially teaching which is a 24/7 occupation the constant planning and assessment and other assorted paperwork. Bravo Mean Mommy well done enjoy your well earned break.

Tell me about it...on Wednesdays I only have my daughter (4mos) as my two boys go to Grandmas (bless her:) and I end up doing nothing that I set out to do. Sometimes it's nice, doing nothing.

I have one of those fraidy-kids myself. She's seven and we're STILL working on swimming and riding a two-wheeler. The fact that she's not a fan of the outdoors because "there are BUGS out there," adds to the difficulty of these endeavors. Good luck!!
