My Little Beach Bum

This little guy is going to start Junior Kindergarten next week.
I think we are both ready.
I will miss our afternoons together.
I can already feel the sting of tears I will shed on this first, important day of days.
But, I know he needs this as much as I do.

For the first time in 6 years, I will have five afternoons each week to work while both boys are at school - two of which will be devoted to errands, chores and renovations, while the other two will be set aside for Etsy, and one, just one, for me.

Only 7 more sleeps.

I Heard the Song of the Crickets

a song of summer
so pure
so true
the wind whispered
gently
I felt the grass
caress my cheek
And so I surrendered
for awhile

Have a wonderful weekend!
I'll see you on Monday.
