Then came summer...

 Summer is always a tough transition because I have to get used to not going to work...
and the kids have to get used to less structure.
Sure, I could try to be on top of things, schedule their calendars full,
and get super creative.
But...
 Sometimes, they don't feel like that...
Sometimes, I don't feel like that...
Sometimes...
 just being free to go climb trees or go for a bike ride
is better than anything I could have scheduled.
:-)
 It takes time to transition...
And then, life happens.
 And, as great of friends as these two are most of the time,
They are siblings.
They fight...about everything!
i.e...
Which seat, which side of the car they get in,
who got more, who's got what broken toy now,
what book to read, who picked out what book,
who goes pee first, who takes out the "num nums,"
who gives who the "num nums"...
and on and on...
But it sure is true love--
no matter the fight, they will love and have fun.
They forgive and move on.
They find fun in common and work it out...or just move on.
Summer...what other lessons in love will we learn???
